REVEALED! How Real Madrid Star Kylian Mbappe Had Agreement To Join Liverpool

In a surprising turn of events, a report from Ferran Correas via SPORT has revealed that Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappe had actually agreed to join Liverpool in 2022. However, the transfer fell through due to Paris Saint-Germain’s high demands for a transfer fee.

The report highlights that this incident took place just two months after Mbappe had extended his contract with PSG in 2022.

The French forward was reportedly frustrated because the club had not followed through on promises to bring in top reinforcements to compete for the Champions League title.

High-profile players like Robert Lewandowski and Bernardo Silva were mentioned, but none of these deals materialised. Feeling betrayed, Mbappe reached an agreement with Liverpool and formally requested a transfer from PSG through a written letter.

PSG blocked the move

As it turns out, PSG’s then managing director, Antero Henrique, placed a staggering €400 million price tag on the player, which was far beyond Liverpool’s budget.

The Reds were reportedly ready to pay around €200 million, with the plan for Mbappe to sign a short-term contract before eventually moving to Real Madrid.

Mbappe’s dissatisfaction with PSG was evident as he chose not to play in their opening league match that season. Although the club issued a medical report, many found it hard to believe.

Fast forward to 2023, Mbappe once again expressed his displeasure with PSG by sending another letter stating his intent not to renew his contract. This prompted the Parisian club to put him up for sale, and at one point, he was even removed from the squad.

Despite this tension, Mbappe eventually returned to the starting lineup under manager Luis Enrique. This summer, however, he finally completed his long-anticipated move to Real Madrid, leaving PSG on a free transfer.
