Madrid have that chance, but I didn't hear any official news if Madrid were really interested. Because since Madrid's second offer failed, there has been no new news about Mbaape for Madrid. I think there will be a lot of competition with big European clubs to get him. I heard Ms Mbaape asking for a very big salary for a new club. That could put a burden on the club for his finances. I think with today's conditions Madrid have had complete players. If Mbaape comes then they have to throw out 1 player.

🇫🇷 Ibrahima Konaté when asked about Mbappé and Liverpool links: “Guys, in all honesty, do you really think he’s coming here?!”.

“We all know where Kylian is going!”.

Konate was asked about where Mbappe is going after the game against Brentford. He jokingly said, ‘we all know where Kylian is going’

We can all assume that is Real Madrid.

Well Kylian is said to be leaving the club and plans to get a quality replacement is already in progress. Kylian has been linked for a move out of the club and he’s expected to leave at the end of the season. Now some key players have been linked to replace him and one player that has been checked on is AC Milan Rafael Leao. Leao is one quality attacker that has similar pace like Kylian and can be a good replacement for Kylian in that PSG's Squad.

 Him in that team is sure to make the starting line up on every match he plays cause he has the quality of a starter . I think now the coach will now have to build the team making all the players involved this time rather than all playing for one player. Leao on the other hand has proved himself worthy at Ac Milan  but would also need to do same at PSG if they finally get him, I think he'll make a fine replacement for Mbappé.

Lautaro Martinez has two years left his contract with Inter Milan and expiry on June 2026, seems its longer time and Inter Milan actually won't sell him for next season regarding get two years left more enough for defending him. Current performance, Lautaro Martinez would be make many teams interested for signing him after success scoring 20 goals of 22 appearance in domestic league matches. I dout with Lautaro Martinez will leave Inter Milan next summer although has rumor he want get more higher payment salary. PSG get many possible for Mbappe replacement from Rafael Leão who want more higher payment salary with AC Milan until possibilities Victor Osimhen as other alternative if can't sign Leao.

Haha, I was also thinking about the fact that we don't know if PSG can convince Laturo Martinez to replace Killian Mbappe. I think Laturo Martinez is more preferable to PSG. Beside PSG, Victor Osimane and Rafael Leao have also been put on the list by PSG for the replacement of Killian Mbappe, but I think only Laturo Martinez can have more possibilities in these three. Rejection can happen because Vicot Osimene is a highly value marked player, and big clubs are looking for him despite the fact that Reafal Leao is young. Also, Killyan Mbappe will not come to PSG due to PSG's lack of confidence in winning trophies. like the UCL, League, etc.

Osimhen sees him to be a very good number nine. This is a good decision considering osimhen is willing to leave from the club. I do support the decision for him to leave from napoli but it's not yet clear whether PSG has been approaching or not. I hope osimhen will be going to the best league in the world and that's EPL.
It will also help him to get a lot of experience. PSG was good but this club is not good for him caused by he will get nothing from there. PSG will consistently played in UCL but osimhen really needs a club that will able to give him best experience as striker.
I think that the most suitable team for him will be EPL team. I don't even see PSG as a good consideration to continue his career as a professional footballer. Osimhen needs to get the right club for his future. Probably chelsea or arsenal.
These choices are far better rather than PSG.

Rafael Leao has been a great player for Ac Milan, with Kylian Mbappe moving already he will be a good replacement for Mbappe, he is indeed a business footballer.
He Lautaro Martinez would not be moving anywhere, he is best where he is currently. Inter Milan are happy with him and he is also happy with the progress they're making he'll be moving nowhere.
Martinez Lautaro is indeed a loyal player and fan of Inter Milan.

Leao is a winger and is the main name to replace Kylian Mbappe, Lautaro to PSG would not happen because they have players in the same position. What's the possibility of him being the first choice attacking player for em!

I think so too, PSG is targeting Osimhen not without reason. Because we all know that in the French league there are lots of players of African descent which will make it easier for Osimhen to adapt quickly, especially in terms of language and culture. And there is the potential that Osimhen could be one of the top scorer candidates in League 1 because there are only a few competitive teams there.

Comparing Xabi's abiliy based on his performances with his team, it'll be fair to admit his superiority in skillset. Leverkusen when Xabi took over had to start from scratch to build up to where they are now. So far Xabi, he has been a good boss and his methods have worked perfectly for Leverkusen. One would wonder how he managed to put up such feat for the team considering the spot he picked them from. It's one quality that can definitely be found in a good manager.
 
 Leverkusen have been impressive in all rounds and it's surprising that they're now better than some already grounded teams. It only means that Xabi has a unique managing quality which can be of essence in bigger teams too. I believe he's still got good plans for the German team, which will still be manifested good.

These three players are very good. But I would like to open a parenthesis for Lautaro Martinez, because I think he sometimes gets a bit of unfair criticism.

Lautaro Martínez has scored more than 20 goals in Serie A for 3 seasons in a row. The identity of the Italian Serie A is defense. A striker who scores so many goals there would score many goals in any league in the world.

These three players are very good. But if Paris Saint Germain signs one of them, they will probably set a new transfer record. On the other hand, they won't earn any fee income from Mbappe. I think it would be very unfair for them.

Like I said before, Lautaro Martinez is one passionate player who loves everything about his current club Inter Milan and that's why I don't expect the Argentina international to leave the club at the end of the current season or even two years time. Though we've seen that's shown more passion for their club but still left in the past but I strongly doesn't think it'll happen in Martinez case.

So I think Paris Saint Germaine would rather switch their interest to AC Milan's Rafael Leao as he's more likely to join them than Lautaro Martinez

It's natural when you say that, because I also see that Ligue 1 or Paris Saint Germain have nothing to sell except by luring big money to plyers. I would say the same thing as you, don't take offense to what I say, because of course we have personal opinions when looking at or assessing a club.
Paris Saint Germain will not hesitate to spend big money on the players they want, and we have seen that over the years, especially for the plyer who has caught the eye, Mbappe. Even now, Mbappe's future is still in question, whether he will continue his career at Paris Saint Germain or not, because the last news I heard was that he did not want to extend his contract with Paris Saint Germain.

After Mbappe's definitive announcement of his departure from PSG, PSG has moved for a transfer to that area. Victor Osimhen, who played a big part in Napoli's championship last season, is the first candidate for PSG. Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis and PSG have good relations. They had previously agreed on the transfers of Cavani and Lavezzi. Again, this transfer can be done in good faith. I think Osimhen will fit into PSG's tactics and will have no trouble adapting in France. They can only replace Mbappe with a player of this quality.

As far as I remember, Xabi has been in charge of Leverkusen for a season and a half. in his first season with Bayer Leverkusen, especially in the middle of the season. he was able to bring Leverkusen from a team that was in the relegation zone, to finishing in 6th place in the Bundesliga. this season, by bringing in several newcomers, Leverkusen has become a solid and strong team in the competitions they play. so it's natural that Xavi Alonso is in the spotlight of elite European clubs, one of which has been linked to him is Real Madrid. Because Don Carlo has extended his contract with El Real, discussions about Alonso going to Real Madrid have ended. but it doesn't stop there, now it is clear that Bayern wants the Leverkusen coach to leave Aliianz Arena.

However, news is circulating that it seems very likely that Xabi Alonso will leave Germany and move to England. in retrospect, Alonso signed a new contract with Leverkusen over the summer, extending his commitment to the club until the end of the 2025-26 season. however, it is reported that an agreement has been reached between Alonso and the club's top brass, allowing for his potential departure to a prestigious club such as Liverpool. reference, reported by Deveockop.  it could be, if Alonso leaves Bayer Leverkusen next summer. moreover, Leverkusen manager, Jurgen Klopp, praised the Bayer Leverkusen coach. according to Klopp, Xabi has done something special at Leverkusen. several other rumors, Xabi Alonso is rumored to be worthy of being Jurgen Klopp's successor with Liverpool. well, because this season is still long, we'll see what happens next summer.

I'd love to see him swinging that way but believe me, I think he'll consider it betrayal managing Bayern Munich but ain't this the same club he played for? Scoring his very first goal with that beautiful freekick?
If he doesn't keav at the end of the season, it'll definitely become harder for him. But between Liverpool and Bayern Munich without bias, he'll do a good job everywhere but it would be best if he moves to Bayern Munich.

Liverpool though are ready to welcome the Spanish legend with warm and open arms. I know he'll do well over there despite the Premier League Competition being difficult.

The agent of Lautaro already said they do not want to renew the past month.

What if is already done behind the scenes...?

In fact what is worrying is that Mbappe will receive another contract extension offer after PSG started negotiating and this has happened in the previous season. If Mbappe wants to continue his career for the better then Real Madrid should be a more ideal club for him because there are many players out there who quite intend to play for Real Madrid but because the opportunities they have are not as good as Mbappe's. Even if PSG is willing to let Mbappe go, maybe not by free transfer because I believe this is about business.

We know that the owner of PSG is not just anyone and he has the influence to change Mbappe's decision. I want to see how far Mbappe sees football and whether it's really about money and not wanting to pursue his individual career. It would be a shame if Mbappe made the wrong decision again because it could result in his career not going according to his wishes.

Leao and Lautaro most likely yeah but Osimhem probably no. Osimhem is linked with the other top clubs in EPL as well as some other league but if he choose to sign with PSG then he is going to repeat the same mistake Mbappe did. He is currently 25 years old and going to be on his prime on maybe another 1-2 years so yeah he should be going to some other league instead of Ligue 1

No offense but we all know how good the other leagues are compared to Ligue 1

Klopp has decided to take a break from coaching after this season ends, Klopp decision has of course created a bit of busyness for Liverpool at this time to find the right coach and caliber of Klopp to handle Liverpool next, currently many names continue to emerge to replace Klopp position but no one has yet been selected   to coach Liverpool next season, Pep Lijnders, Roberto De Zerbi, Ruben Amorim, Graham Potter and Xabi Alonso are the names predicted to become Liverpool coaches next season, but so far I think Pep Lijnders is one of the strongest candidates to replace Klopp compared to other names, so far Pep Lijnders has knows Liverpool quite well because he has been Klopp assistant all this time at Liverpool so he became a very worthy candidate, many of the members here predict that Alonso will replace Klopp, but I personally am quite pessimistic if this will happen, indeed in his contract with Leverkusen, Alonso has the right to decide to terminate his contract with Leverkusen if Liverpool want to sign him as a coach, but for next season I  sure that will not happen, as a beginner coach of course Alonso must be grateful to Leverkusen for giving him confidence in coaching and so it would be unethical if Leverkusen's trust was only repaid for one season,  I think to repay Leverkusen kindness, of course Alonso will last at least 2 seasons before he actually goes to another team.

Like you rightly said, Lautaro Martinez is one player that's very passionate when it come to his club Inter Milan and I don't think the Argentina international is ever gonna leave the Italian giants any time soon. Victor Osimhen on the other hand is more interested in joining an English Premier League club than any other league in the European top five leagues and that's why I think Rafael Leao will be the best possible replacement for Kylian Mbappe at Paris Saint Germaine when the French international leave the club this summer.
Paris Saint Germaine have been dominating the French league because of their superior number of quality players when compared to other teams in the French league and would definitely want to continue that way even when Kylian Mbappe leaves the club
