Kylian Mbappe fuels Liverpool transfer speculation after boxing day win over Leicester

Kylian Mbappe has sparked speculations again of a possible transfer to Anfield after responding to Trent Alexander-Arnold goal celebration in Liverpool's boxing day win

Kylian Mbappe responded to  Alexander-Arnold goal celebration after the Liverpool defender appeared to have mimicked the PSG star trademark goal-celebration style with his arms folded across his chest when he scored against second-place Leicester City.

Alexander-Arnold provided two assist and scored Liverpool's fourth as the League leaders extend  their lead at top of the Premier League table to 13 points clear.

After the match Arnold tweeted the picture of himself copying Mbappe, saying: "Anything Mbappe can do..." along with a crying laughing emoji and the hashtag YNWA (You'll Never Walk Alone).



Mbappe has long been linked with a move to Liverpool - and the French World Cup winner got in on the act himself, liking a post on Twitter comparing pictures of the two players.

It all fuelled speculation that Liverpool will make a move for the Paris-Saint Germain star with fans believing that Alexander-Arnold's celebration could have been banter between two future team-mates.
