Liverpool may be willing to break their salary structure to sign Kylian Mbappe, but Jurgen Klopp will not be staying at Anfield even if he signs the Frenchman.
At the end of last month, Klopp announced that he would step down as manager in the summer. The German managed Anfield for nine years, during which time the club enjoyed great success in the transfer market. One of the secrets of their success is their strict salary structure. Reds tend to reward loyalty and avoid breaking this structure except in exceptional circumstances.
The last time they did that was when star striker Mohamed Salah signed a new contract. There are now suggestions they could re-sign Mbappe, who will leave PSG at the end of the season.The Frenchman has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid, with the La Liga giants having impressed the striker over the years.
However, the deal has stalled due to Mbappe’s wage demands being rejected by Madrid.That opens the door for another suitor to steal a march on Los Blancos, with some suggesting Liverpool as an option after Klopp expressed his admiration for the star.
He said: “We laugh about it. I can say that he is a very good player. “But we are not at all happy with our financial situation.”The bottom line is the most important of all and would put an end to the idea of Mbappe moving to Anfield.
Liverpool may have helped persuade Klopp to stay, even if it meant breaking the unspoken rule of making new players the biggest winners. The German is confident that the decision to leave will follow. He also said that Liverpool’s owners, who know him well, have not tried to persuade him to change course. “Well, how can I say this? I don’t have the strength anymore.
I don’t have this problem now. Of course, I realized a while ago that I should have posted about this at some point, but I’m doing really well now. “I know I can’t do this again,” he said.“After all the years we’ve spent together, all the time we’ve spent together and everything we’ve done together, my respect for you has grown and my love for you has grown. And I owe you the least.
This is the truth. . “I said to the club in November, I have to explain a bit, people can see what I’m doing there, I’m on the sidelines or I’m in training or something like that, but mostly everything revolves around that. .
