Liverpool, Man City to launch January attempts for PSG star Mbappe

Liverpool and Manchester City are tipped to bid for PSG striker Kylian Mbappe.

That's according to the Telegraph's Luke Edwards.

He reported on BBC Sport: "I think Mbappe has his heart set on this Real Madrid move, but I think there might be a bit of action in January.

"Premier League clubs have money. If Manchester City decided they wanted to make a move for Mbappe and got encouragement from Mbappe's camp, I could see Manchester City going in for him. There have been vague rumours of Liverpool being interested as well. There has been some contact between clubs via intermediaries in the past.

"I think there might just be a bit of action in January. I don't know where he would rather go."

Clarifying what he meant, the journalist replied: "Yeah, the likes of Man City and Liverpool, maybe they will come in for him in January. I don't think it's beyond the realms of possibility for sure to hijack that deal, but all signposts point to him going to Real Madrid."
