Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal and Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool want to sign Kylian Mbappe, but it seems that Real Madrid are getting “serious” about the Paris Saint-Germain forward.
Arsenal and Liverpool linked with Kylian Mbappe
Journalist Edu Aguirre said on El Chiringuito TV this week that Liverpool are interested in signing Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer transfer window, while earlier this month, Football Transfers claimed that Arsenal want to secure the services of the France international forward in the summer of 2024.
The report in Football transfers stated that Arsenal admire Mbappe and are “considering whether or not to send a package to the Frenchman’’s representatives”.
Aguirre said on El Chiringuito TV that Liverpool have made an offer of €200 million (£170.96 million) for the Frenchman.
Real Madrid ‘serious’ about Mbappe now
Italian journalist Rudy Galetti is reporting on Twitter today that Real Madrid are now getting “serious” about signing Mbappe this summer.
The Italian reporter has claimed that Madrid president Florentino Perez wants to secure the services of the Frenchman back in the summer of 2021 and are now on the verge of opening talks with PSG.
Los Blancos reportedly want to get a deal done by the end of July.
Blow for Arsenal and Liverpool
In our opinion, Real Madrid getting serious about Kylian Mbappe is a huge blow for Liverpool and Arsenal.
Arsenal are reportedly planning a move for Mbappe next summer.
So, if Madrid are about to open talks now, the Gunners are pretty much out of the race already.
Liverpool are a big club, but Madrid are arguably the biggest club in the world with a massive European pedigree.
And Madrid do tend to get the players they really, really want.
