Arsene Wenger makes new Kylian Mbappe transfer prediction amid Liverpool links

Arsene Wenger believes Kylian Mbappe will stay at Paris Saint-Germain or switch to Real Madrid.

Rumours have been swirling for months around a potential deal between Liverpool and the French superstar, as his contract at the Parc de Princes runs out next year but the 22-year-old is yet to commit his future to the Ligue 1 giants.

However, former Arsenal boss Wenger - who currently works as FIFA's Head of Football Development - seemingly does not see his compatriot's future at Anfield.

He told Le Parisien: "In five years time, Kylian will be on top of the world. On top of the world in Paris or Madrid.

"And I hope he will have won one or several Ballon D'Or.

"Kylian must not place any limitations on himself.

"I have said that there are similarities between Kylian and Pele. He is a good example to follow. Pele played in four World Cups, he won three.

"Kylian, at the age of 22, has already played in one and won one.

"The French national team, which won the World Cup with key young players and by a distance, has it all to win the next one."
