Liverpool are reportedly out of the race to sign Kylian Mbappe next summer despite Jurgen Klopp previously admitting that he is a huge fan. The Paris Saint-Germain star is set to take on a new challenge once his contract expires at the end of the season.<\/p>\n

Mbappe’s deal has just over six months left to run, and it was made clear during the summer that he has no intention of sticking around in Ligue 1. Real Madrid and the Reds are widely deemed to have the best chance of snapping up the 24-year-old.<\/p>\n

But Sky Germany claim that Liverpool have decided not to push ahead with what would be a mega-money deal for Mbappe, paving the way for Los Blancos to chime in uncontested.<\/p>\n

The report adds that the financial commitments needed to land the Frenchman are not currently under consideration at Anfield. The Bernabeu is therefore his most likely destination, although the La Liga giants may need to be patient.<\/p>\n

Mbappe retains the option to extend his PSG stay by a further 12 months, which has not yet been categorically ruled out. The jet-heeled forward looked destined to join Real last summer before a last-minute change of heart saw him sign a lucrative new contract.<\/p>\n

The Parisians are believed to be relaxed about the prospect of losing Mbappe as they will still receive a fee despite the player approaching free agency.<\/p>\n
