£235m for Kylian Mbappe: Should Liverpool still sign the Frenchman?

Image
Everybody wants to sign Kylian Mbappe including Liverpool who have reportedly inquired about his World Cup winner. 

The 20-year-old wants to compete with the likes of Lionel Messi, Ryan Giggs and Paolo Maldini on the number of trophies won and not necessary how many goals or assists he made a season. 

Giggs has won 36 trophies, Paolo Maldini 34 and Lionel Messi 32 compared to Kylian Mbappe 9 which he wants to change. He is young and still has plenty of time, you might think but Mbappe knows now is the best time to move to top club capable of winning him the Champions League. 

He doesn't want to be like Gigi Buffon, David Silva, Edinson Cavani or Zlatan Ibrahimovic who have won all domestic trophies at their respective club side but failed to win the Champions League. Mbappe wants to win everything and feels Liverpool is the right club to help him achieve that trophy. 

But signing him will be too expensive for Liverpool.. 

Mbappe will cost Liverpool or any club interested in his service £235m and command a weekly wage over £450,000 plus lucrative add-ons. 

Added to that, he prefers to play in the right wing where Mohamed Salah currently plays  but he can also play as a centre forward. 

The only problem is that he lacks the energy to press relentlessly from the front; the daft touches and vision to drop and orchestrate the flow of the game while playing selflessly for Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane to score. Simply put, he can't replace Bobby cause he loves to score goals and not provide assists for Salah and Mane.

So should Liverpool go ahead and sign him?

Europe League beckons: Why Jurgen Klopp is very worried about Salzburg

The reigning European champions are on the verge of exiting the competitions in the round of 16.  Liverpool could become the second team in 10 years to exit the Champions League in the group stage since AC Milan. But to prevent that from happening Jurgen Klopp's men must beat Salzburg at Red Bull Arena which frankly is no easy feat.  Salzburg is no push over and Klopp know this. He watched as Jesse Marsch men came back from a 3-0 defeat in the first half to draw 3-3 in the second half. It took a moment of pure genius from Mohamed Salah to find the winning goal and salvage respect from the home side.  Now, Austria team have an opportunity to create history, they've the chance to dump Liverpool out of the Champions League by beating them at home and progressing to the round of 16.  It won't be easy though but why would you doubt them knowing that Liverpool's defence is very weak and porous.  This season, the Reds have played 9 games at Anfield...
