Liverpool could sign Kylian Mbappe for 'astronomical' fee after 'huge' update - pundit
Frank McAvennie has claimed it would take an “astronomical fee” to bring Kylian Mbappe to Liverpool.
Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, the former West Ham striker said he would love to see Jude Bellingham and Mbappe together at Anfield.
According to Spanish outlet Sport (19 December), the Reds are back in the running to make a “huge” bid in the summer for Mbappe, 24, after re-emerging as one of the club’s monitoring his situation.
The striker’s PSG contract runs until 2025 after signing an extension in May.
On 13 January , sources told this site that Jurgen Klopp’s side are laying the groundwork for two new signings, and at least one could be done in January.
Bellingham, 19, remains their top target ahead of the summer window and the Merseysiders are hopeful of getting a deal over the line.

When asked if he could see Mbappe at Liverpool, McAvennie told Football Insider: “It would be great for British football.
“I can’t see it happening. I do not know if Liverpool has got that kind of huge money. They were reluctant to give [Mohamed] Salah the money and Mbappe is on a king’s ransom at PSG.
“He has got his run of the club. I do not know why he would want to go and I don’t know anyone that can afford him unless he runs out his contract.
“But I can’t see that happening, not in a million years. It would take astronomical money. But I think he is happy there and he is running that club. But imagine Bellingham and Mbappe playing together.“
