Klopp has distanced Liverpool from signing Kylian Mbappe this summer and revealed that he and his staff often laugh about the speculation linking his club with a move for the forward.


Mbappe, who joined PSG in 2017 initially on loan from Monaco before a £165.7million transfer, has scored 212 goals in 260 games for the club.



the 24-year-old has informed the club that he will not extend his contract with them beyond 2024, which has resulted in PSG now wanting to cash in


A report emerged on Saturday night claiming that Liverpool were in talks with PSG over a loan move for Mbappe


Klopp shut down the suggestion, claiming that the "financial conditions" don’t suit his club and that unless he is surprised by senior figures, a deal won’t be happening.



Klopp:


"We laugh about it,"


"I can say that I think he’s a really good player, but the financial conditions don’t suit us at all.


"I wouldn’t like to ruin the story now, but as far as I know, there’s nothing to it. But it’s possible that someone else from the club is preparing something and wants to surprise me, but that hasn’t happened in the eight years that I’ve been here. That would be the first time."



Mbappe revealed he held discussions with Liverpool before opting to join PSG when he decided to leave Monaco.


"We talked a little bit, but not too much," he told the Telegraph last year. "We talked a little bit. I talked to Liverpool because it's the favourite club of my mum, my mum loves Liverpool.


"I don't know why, you will have to ask her! It's a good club, and we met them five years ago. When I was in Monaco, I met them. It's a big club."
