Jurgen Klopp has joked that the only way Liverpool would sign Kylian Mbappe this summer is if the board go behind his back for the first time since he’s been at the club in order to ‘surprise’ him.
“We laugh about it,” Klopp told Sky Germany.
“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.”
