Arriving this summer at the White House, Kylian Mbappé has had a mixed start under his new colors. If in terms of statistics the kid from Bondy responds with 7 goals and an assist in 10 matches played (all competitions combined), he is far from being brilliant in the game, while the connection with his new partners is not not yet fully established.
Moreover, the former Parisian has not yet impressed his teammate Antonio Rüdiger. Asked to give the name of the best player with whom he played during his career, the German defender skipped Mbappé for another French striker. A certain Karim Benzema.
Rüdiger: “The best player I played with? Karim Benzema »
“Best player I ever played with? Karim Benzema. I could have cited many others. I could have said Luka Modric, Toni Kroos or Eden Hazard, but I have to stay on Karim Benzema because he was a great striker. His intelligence is incredible! It’s world class”Rüdiger said during an interview with YouTube channel The Inside Scoop.
The former Chelsea player then returned to Mbappé’s adaptation. “ We hear things like this: “Kylian is going to pollute the locker room”. But he’s a guy with his feet on the ground, he assured. I find him mature and he is already scoring goals, he is influential and his automatisms with Vinicius, Rodrygo and Jude (Bellingham) will improve. »
