Kylian Mbappe has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Liverpool, as Real Madrid begins to consider potential exit scenarios for the French star amid growing criticism from fans.

Although Mbappe has continued to deliver on an individual level, he has increasingly come under scrutiny following Real Madrid’s recent run of disappointing results.

During the 2025/26 campaign, Mbappe has scored 41 goals in 41 official appearances across all competitions, while also contributing six assists.

Liverpool position Mbappe at core of future plans

According to reports cited by Fichajes, Liverpool has started to step up efforts to bring the French forward to the Premier League. The English club, which competes in the top tier of English football, is said to be planning an ambitious rebuild for next season and is looking to place Mbappe at the center of that project.

NTV Spor's report suggests that Liverpool views Mbappe not just as a signing, but as a key figure around whom a new sporting structure could be built.

Madrid forced to assess all outcomes

As speculation gathers pace, Real Madrid’s management is understood to be weighing all possible scenarios regarding the player’s future.

Internal sources indicate that keeping Mbappe would require careful handling, pointing to a delicate process both on and off the pitch.
