Kylian Mbappé says he was close to joining Liverpool in 2018, stating his mum was a ‘big fan of Jurgen Klopp’, before he ultimately decided to join his boyhood club, PSG 😮
❤️🇦🇷 Alexis Mac Allister: “I really enjoy being where I am. Hopefully, I'll stay for more years at Liverpool…”.
“But if it ends up being just two, that's fine too. I want to enjoy this time with my family because I have no doubt that this is one of the best clubs in the world”.
🚨 Kylian Mbappé: “I was close to Liverpool. My mum was a big fan of Jurgen Klopp and the favourite destination for my mum was Liverpool. She wanted me to go there!”, told @TheAthleticFC.
“I didn’t listen because I wanted to play in my city, Paris. I didn’t want to leave my country before I was someone. But yes, my mum was always saying, ‘Liverpool — you’re going to be there, playing at Anfield, it’s going to be insane for you.’ I was like, ‘OK!’
“She went there (for) the first step of the negotiations. She went to the city, the stadium, she met the people. She was like, ‘It’s a wonderful club, everybody’s so kind, it’s a family club, a big club.’
"She went to Anfield and fell in love with it. She watched a few games alone, to feel the atmosphere, because she wanted to imagine me in this stadium.
“All the time we were talking. ‘What do you think, Mum?’ She’d say, ‘For me, you have to go to Liverpool. I said, ‘OK, OK, OK!’ because Jurgen Klopp was an amazing manager. I met him and had a wonderful relationship with him. I had big respect for him.”
Six years ago today, Diogo Jota became a Red.
Today, as every day, all of us at Liverpool FC are thinking of him, his brother Andre and his family and friends.
Forever our number 20 ❤️
