Mbappe speaks out as ex-Liverpool star Firmino considers Premier League transfer
Liverpool are currently top of the Premier League, with Jurgen Klopp's side three points clear of Aston Villa in second.
However, they are set to lose both Mohamed Salah and Wataru Endo to the Africa Cup of Nations and Asian Cup respectively, meaning Klopp may look to bring in reinforcements in the January transfer window.
Liverpool are set to be back in action on Sunday when they take on Arsenal in the third round of the FA Cup, with that tie then followed on Wednesday by the first leg of their League Cup semi-final clash against Fulham. Here is the latest transfer news coming out of Anfield.
Mbappe speaks out
Liverpool are among the clubs that have been linked with a move for Kylian Mbappe, who is out of contract at Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the season.
And the forward has now spoken out about his future, insisting he will not rush to make a decision. He said: "To start with I'm very motivated by this year. It's very important. We have titles to win and we have already won one. I haven't made my decision yet. I haven't made a choice.
