Kylian Mbappé has weighed in on the imminent transfer of fellow talent Florian Wirtz to Liverpool, indicating that the deal is almost sealed. Reports from Germany suggest that this blockbuster transfer could be 'considered done', with the Reds eager to enhance their already formidable squad.

Liverpool is making waves in the transfer market, poised to break their transfer record with a reported deal for Wirtz that could reach €140 million (£118 million, $160 million). While Bayer Leverkusen has rejected two previous offers, sources indicate that a third bid will likely clinch the signing of the 22-year-old playmaker.

In addition to the hefty transfer fee, Liverpool is reportedly prepared to offer Wirtz a staggering weekly salary of £340,000, ensuring he becomes one of the club's highest earners upon arrival.

With an agreement on the horizon, the anticipation builds around when Wirtz will complete his medical examination, with German sources hinting that the transfer is nearing its final stages.

Mbappé's Praise for Wirtz

Ahead of what could be a thrilling showdown in the Europa League, where Mbappé's team might face Wirtz, the French superstar expressed admiration for the young talent. "He is a top talent, and Germany is lucky to have him," Mbappé stated. "I enjoy watching him play, and it seems likely he’ll make the move this summer. We’ll see how he adapts and continues to improve."

Ballon d'Or Talks Heat Up

While Mbappé hasn't donned the Liverpool jersey himself, he follows their activities closely. In related news, he recently surprised fans by bypassing Mohamed Salah when discussing potential Ballon d'Or contenders. Instead, he threw his support behind Ousmane Dembélé, suggesting he deserves the prestigious award.

Mbappé remarked, "Would I vote for Dembélé? Yes! It's very clear. It will be interesting to see who emerges as the favorite as we get closer to the announcement."

Liverpool's Transfer Hustle Continues

As Liverpool eyes an immediate impact with Wirtz, they are also on the cusp of announcing their second signing of the summer, with Jeremie Frimpong already secured. The buzz in the transfer market suggests that Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez could be the next to join the ranks at Anfield.

Furthermore, recent communications hint that another Liverpool player is looking for a way out this summer, suggesting a flurry of activity as the club looks to revamp its lineup. Meanwhile, the ongoing tug-of-war over Hugo Ekitike between Chelsea and Eintracht Frankfurt could present Liverpool with a golden opportunity to snag the talented forward.
