Liverpool steps up their transfer pursuit of PSG sensation Kylian Mbappe, who agrees to forgo £69 million.

Kylian Mbappe has agreed to forgo a £69m loyalty bonus to secure a more amicable exit from Paris Saint-Germain this summer. The 25-year-old signed a contract with PSG in 2022, which was canceled after Real Madrid axed him from their pre-season tour of Asia. Despite the dispute, Mbappe was rewarded with an 80 million euro loyalty bonus after remaining with the club beyond the summer transfer window. Liverpool are now considering a pre-contract agreement with a new club, with reports suggesting that Jurgen Klopp’s Reds are the frontrunners. Mbappe has expressed his motivation to stay in the French capital, stating that it is “very important” for him to leave the club.
