Seven-time Ballon d’Or winner Messi on Mbappe and Neymar

Social

Lionel Messi raved about his teammate Mbappe, who he said was a “beast” and a “complete player”. This interview is also a defense of all the criticism that Mbappe has received recently.

The World Cup-winning French footballer is clearly already one of the world’s elite players. At just 23 years old, he has already made 226 appearances for the Ligue 1 champions and scored 181 goals, so Lionel Messi believes that Mbappe will achieve even more.

‘Kilian is a different player, a beast that is very strong in one-on-one, that goes to space, is very fast, has a lot of goals, is a very complete player and has been proving it for years, and in the coming years he will be among the better, for sure’, he commented.

Messi has also been discussing his relationship with Brazilian superstar Neymar:

‘With Neymar we know each other by heart, we enjoyed a lot of time in Barcelona, I would have liked to have enjoyed more in Barcelona, but life found us again in Paris, we are happy to be together, I love it to play with him, be in the day to day’.
