Former Liverpool forward Peter Crouch has outlined the reason why his old club could secure Kylian Mbappe this summer.
Mbappe’s future is under intense speculation amid a reported fallout with PSG coach Thomas Tuchel a couple of weeks ago.
The European champions have been tentatively linked with a blockbuster move for the France World Cup winner in recent months, despite the world-record fee Mbappe would likely command.
Reds boss Jurgen Klopp laughed off links last year, admitting that the transfer fee would be problematic for most clubs in world football, but Crouch believes the German would be the reason why the Reds would beat Europe’s elite to the 21-year-old’s signature.
“Complete opposite,” Crouch told BT Sport when asked whether some of the Reds’ stars could leave Anfield in the not so near future.
“I’m looking at players like Mbappe and top, top class players who will want to come to Liverpool.
“They see how harmonious the group is, they’re winning every single game, they look like they’re playing with a smile on their face.
“Everyone in world football would want to work under Jurgen Klopp. He has built the club off of what Brendan Rodgers’ did, he did very, very well.
“Not only has he bought top-class players, he’s improved all of those players and they’re playing at the top of their game now.”
