French reports revealed that Juergen Klopp, the manager of the English club Liverpool, had a phone call with the father of the French international star Killian Mbappe during the period of stoppage of sports competitions due to the Corona pandemic.

This came according to the French "Le 10 Sport" website.

It should be noted that Klopp is a long-time admirer of the young French star who is considered the ideal alternative in the event of a possible departure of the star Sadio Mane, because of the speed that makes him eligible for the way the English Premier League game is played.

Mbappe, 19, is linked to a contract with the French capital club, Paris Saint-Germain, that lasts until 2022, and the site stated that the player cannot be transferred from the club with less than 200 million euros, despite the decline in transfer rates due to the Corona crisis.

Paris Saint-Germain is seeking to extend his contract with the international striker and raise his annual salary to the same level as the Brazilian star Neymar (estimated at 30 million euros).

It is noteworthy that Mbabe, whose father is running his business, has refused to negotiate his contract so far.

It should be noted that the Spanish club Real Madrid is the club that Mbabe joins, as the French star dreamed of him when he was young, and the leadership of the Royal Club has good relations with Paris Saint-Germain officials.
