Mbappé does not want to stay at PSG, but prefers to ask a family member if playing at Anfield is right for him 

Despite Kylian Mbappé's recent words of calm after rumours of his plans to leave, the atmosphere in Paris is far from ideal. The French star wants Neymar out of the team and the top echelons of the club are looking for a formula to achieve this. But if the Frenchman's whim is not fulfilled, he would be willing to leave the team and his best option would be Liverpool. Liverpool are seen as the best sporting project by Mbappé's uncle Pierre, who even tried to push for a transfer to the Reds back in the summer window. If LFC were to revive their interest Mbappé would listen to the advice this time round.

According to El País newspaper, Mbappé's relative has become a sort of advisor and all of the French star's decisions are consulted with him. Pierre was the one who told him to sign for Liverpool in the summer, but Mbappé refused, although now with the problems at PSG, that idea could be revived and he could end up playing at Anfield under Jürgen Klopp.

It is not just Kylian who carries the Mbappé name around France. So did Pierre, his uncle, during his time as a footballer and as a coach, although he did not reach the elite like his nephew. Pierre Mbappé accompanied his nephew on his visits to Europe's top clubs when Kylian was just a boy, and he has told L'Équipe what those days were like and why the family decided not to keep him in Madrid.

Neymar's surprising renewal was the first of the disappointments for Mbappé and his entourage of family and lawyers, who have been leaking a growing disenchantment ever since," the source said. Similarly, the relationship between the former Monaco player and Lionel Messi is not the best. Thus, the French team are willing to do anything to satisfy the demands of their young star and the aforementioned information from El País adds that PSG have been studying for months how to pay Neymar the highest salary in the history of sport, close to 300 million euros.

<strong>Liverpool is the best option for Mbappé&#39;</strong>

Among the possible avenues is Chelsea's willingness to pay the €40m a year for the 30-year-old Canarinho international. In the meantime, should the situation not become clearer, one destination is gaining momentum for Kylian Mbappé. In this case, it is Liverpool, a club that his uncle Pierre Mbappé (a respected football adviser) considers to be the most suitable option for the player, and which he already tried to sign him last summer. Contacts between the parties are still on the agenda, so we should not underline this possibility with a view to 2023.
