Liverpool boss Klopp: Mbappe? What a player, what a player!

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits he's a big fan of PSG striker Kylian Mbappe.

Mbappe is set to lead the line for PSG in tonight's Champions League clash.

Klopp told RMC: "I love him, to be honest! He is a fantastic player. A very good boy and what a player, what a player ... I think that all of European football has known him since he was 16-17 years old when he played with the young team of Monaco. And from the age of 17, he began to pierce defenses as he does now.

"He plays at a very high level for his young age. He shows all the time that he is a very well educated young player and that he knows what he is doing."
