Kylian Mbappé has changed his mind regarding his preference between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi…
Lionel Messi’s move to PSG ended in resounding failure. The seven-time Ballon d’Or winner has very rarely lived up to his reputation and the Parisian leaders ultimately did not hesitate to push him out even though he himself wanted to stay in Paris. Two years after his arrival, the Argentinian world champion had to decide to leave.
For many, this departure was necessarily a relief for Kylian Mbappé, who was having a hard time having to share the spotlight with the former Barcelona player. Although he didn’t even take the trouble to greet Neymar when he left for Saudi Arabia, the Bondynois nevertheless paid him a heartfelt tribute at the end of his adventure with the Rouge et Bleu. “ Thank you for these two years together in Paris, I learned a lot from you as a player, partner, opponent and man. For that alone, I am grateful. Good luck in your new adventure”, he wrote on the occasion of the 36e anniversary of the Pulga.
Kylian Mbappé brought it back during a live Instagram. While he always seemed to have a preference for Cristiano Ronaldo, the former Monegasque changed his mind and puts the two men on the same line. “I love Cristiano and I was a big fan of his when I was young, but I started to learn that Messi is very good”, he confided in comments relayed by AS. And the Parisian number 7 added: “ When you’re a big fan of Cristiano, you don’t see how good Messi is, because you love him. But I grew up and love them both.»
