What Kylian Mbappe told Paul Pogba about PSG situation amid Liverpool transfer rumours

Kylian Mbappe may have provided another hint to suggest he is ready to quit Paris Saint-Germain this summer.

The 23-year-old forward continues to be linked with an exit from Mauricio Pochettino's side, having failed to reach any agreement over a new deal with his current employers. Mbappe is out of contract this summer and will be able to sign for a new club as a free agent.

Liverpool have been tentatively linked with the France international in recent years, though it was Real Madrid who made the move to acquire the services of the former Monaco man during the summer transfer window. Los Blancos saw a £137million bid for the exciting youngster knocked back, but are the favourites to become his new permanent home.

Asked to provide an update on his future last month, Mbappe told Movistar: “I’ve not decided my future. I play for Paris Saint-Germain, one of the best clubs in the world. I give my best and then we will see what happens next season.”

Despite claiming to be unsure of his next step, PSG's recent exit from the Champions League may well have influenced his decision. The Ligue 1 side, even with Lionel Messi added to the ranks, continue to struggle in Europe's elite competition and are yet to win the competition.

Pochettino's side have also lost three of their last five league matches, suffering defeats to Monaco, Nice and Nantes. It appears the club's poor form is starting to take its toll on Mbappe, highlighted by a recent video involving Paul Pogba away on international duty. The Manchester United midfielder asked his compatriot how he was doing, to which the PSG star responded "I'm a little fed up."

Pogba's future is also up in the air, with the 29-year-old also approaching the end of his deal at his current club. He re-joined United in the summer of 2016, though has failed to live up to his reputation during his second stint at Old Trafford.
