Mbappe backed to sign for Liverpool

The odds on Liverpool signing Kylian Mbappe this summer shortened from 14/115.00 to 9/110.00 after Betfair punters backed the transfer.

Real Madrid have long been linked with the French forward and they are 10/111.91 favourites to sign him if he leaves Paris Saint-Germain.

But plenty of support in the market centred on Liverpool today, prompting the odds on a move to the Reds to shorten.

Mbappe has only one year left on his contract and new PSG boss Luis Enrique will want clarity on the player's future.

That could mean a decision is made soon and Liverpool and Madrid will both be onl alert.

Mbappe is 17/201.85 to stay with the Ligue 1 champions for another season, even though he said last month that he would not extend his contract at the club.

That could mean PSG sell this summer instead of risking the possibility of losing their star asset for free in 12 months.
