Liverpool and Mbappe | Soumaré, Aouar, Upamecano lowdown | Fekir and what happened next

04/26/20 • 43 min

In the latest instalment of our special series of transfer podcasts, in which we get the lowdown on players linked to Liverpool, Matt Addison picks up the phone to speak to French football expert Tom Williams. On the agenda are Lille midfielder Boubakary Soumaré, Lyon attacker Hassan Aouar and RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano, who are all reportedly on the radar of Jurgen Klopp's European champions. One player Reds boss Klopp - along with every other manager in the world - would like to sign is Kylian Mbappe. The prodigiously talented 21-year-old has spoken highly of Liverpool while Anfield has been touted as his next possible destination. But is there any chance of that happening? Will the Reds' new kit deal with Nike help a possible transfer? And just what makes Mbappe so special? Tom answers those questions as well trying to shed some new light on the Nabil Fekir saga, and what's happened to the playmaker since his dream move to Liverpool fell through. Enjoy.

Our Road to Istanbul podcast returns, and this episode takes Guy Clarke and Dan Kay to Stamford Bridge for the all-English semi-final that saw Liverpool take on Chelsea on their way to the 2005 Champions League final, 15 years ago. Jose Mourinho's Premier League leaders were favourites for the first leg after beating Liverpool on three previous occasions in the unforgettable 2004-05 season, including in the League Cup final in Cardiff just two months before. But, as Guy and Dan explain, Rafa Benitez's Reds were in no mood to let their dreams of winning the club's fifth European Cup slip away.
