It’s not long before Kylian Mbappe’s name comes up, when Liverpool fans talk about players they’d love to see the club to sign in the summer.
Along with Jadon Sancho, it appears the Frenchman has captured the imagination of Reds fans as they’ve talked the rumours into existence.
There have been no substantial reports suggesting that Mbappe and Liverpool will ever be a thing, but #Mbappe2020 has become popular since talk of Nike making our kits from next season began.

BT Sport have now teased Liverpool fans with a mock up of the French forward in a Nike Reds kit, and some fans have found it all a bit much!
As I said before, there are no solid reports linking Mbappe with Liverpool, and most of the rumours seem to originate from fans making jokes amid talk of Nike making the new kits.

In truth, it’s a bit of fun by the BT Sport social media team – it’s an easy way for them to get some attention, and fans have been lapping it up – and not all have been positive!
I’m loving this but you know rival fans are going to cry now cos of this tweet, so well done 👏 #Mbappe2020
