Kylian Mbappe lavishes praise on Liverpool and makes Jurgen Klopp admission

Kylian Mbappe has lavished praise on Liverpool and manager Jurgen Klopp.

The Paris Saint-Germain superstar admits he has been impressed with the Reds' form in the Premier League and credited Klopp with their success.

Liverpool have lost just one game all season and sat 25-points clear of Manchester City at the top of the table before the break due to coronavirus.

And Mbappe, who Liverpool scouted in 2017 and who has been heavily linked with a move to Anfield in recent years, says what Liverpool have done is rare in football.

He told the Mirror : “This season, Liverpool have been a machine in the Premier League.

“They have made winning look easy but the truth is that it is never easy.

“Performances like they have been having don’t just happen.

“To be as ruthless as they have been would come from lots of hard work in training and from having a very good manager.”

Mbappe, still just 21, is one of the most feared strikers in European football. The Frenchman has scored 90 goals in 120 games for PSG since moving from Monaco in 2017.
