Cristiano Ronaldo, Kylian Mbappe and Leo Messi (Reuters)
Kylian Mbappe will very soon meet Leo Messi and the Argentine national team in the battle for the World Cup in the World Cup finals, but despite the fateful meeting with his attacking partner in Paris Saint-Germain on the biggest stage in the world – the best player of all time for Mbappe is Cristiano Ronaldo.
The one who promised this is Abdou Diallo, a friend of the star of the French national team who played with Kylian from 2019 until last summer in PSG and was a good friend of the striker since the days when they played together in Monaco. In an interview with the Daily Mail, Diallo addressed the debate about who is the greatest of all – Messi or Ronaldo, but from Mbappe’s point of view.
“If you mention Leo Messi against Cristiano, if necessary, Mbappe will argue with you for an hour. Cristiano Ronaldo is literally everything to Kylian Mbappe. For him, Cristiano is untouchable,” he said dialo.
The striker’s admiration for CR7 has long been known. When he exploded in Monaco, even before he traveled to the City of Lights in the second-highest transfer in football history, a picture was published of the young star as a child with Ronaldo posters in his room.
Another sign of Mbappe’s preference for Cristiano arrived a few days ago, after the post of the captain of the Portugal team following the painful elimination in the quarter-finals of the World Cup against Morocco. To the same post, the French national team striker responded with three emojis: a crown, clasped hands meaning thanks, and a goat meaning ‘GOAT’ (Greatest of All Time/Best Ever). Will the flea prove otherwise to him in the final?
