Liverpool are exploring the possibility of signing Kylian Mbappe and have reportedly enquired about the possibility of signing the French attacker this summer. The Reds are said to be keen on changing things within their ranks and are looking at available avenues to recruit a target whom they have been keenly monitoring for a few seasons now.
Mbappe's contract situation at Paris Saint-Germain is no secret with the player and the club being involved in drawn-out negotiations that have stalled in recent months. With just a year left on the player's current deal, club President Nasser Al-Khelaifi is confident of extending the Frenchman's stay for the foreseeable future. On Friday, the Parisians announced that Ethan Mbappe, the younger brother of the attacker, has signed a new youth contract with PSG.

While fans are desperate to see Kylian extending his stay, the prospect keeps getting dim by the day. A move to Real Madrid has been speculated in recent seasons and, now, Liverpool are also said on intensifying their pursuit for the forward. According to Marca, Jurgen Klopp's side has enquired about the availability of the French forward this summer in a bid to replenish the forward line.
However, Liverpool's query is said to be borne out of hope rather than expectation, particularly with regards to this summer, as they would be unable to make a move for a player of Mbappe's caliber unless they ship out a few stars of their own. Against this backdrop, the likes of Sadio Mane and Mohammed Salah could be allowed to leave should the club get a buyer.
