On the occasion of receiving the Golden Boot on Friday evening, Kylian Mbappé spoke about Real Madrid’s state of form and the way he feels within Xabi Alonso’s team during a long interview given to Marca and other media present on site. Asked about Xavi Simons, whom he worked with at Paris Saint-Germain, the French striker spoke about the career of his former teammate.
“Yes, he is a very talented young man. He made a wise choice by joining PSV Eindhoven to get playing time. When you’re young at a big club, it’s not easy because everyone wants to play. Then he went to Leipzig, where he played very well. Now he is at Tottenham, and I hope he continues to progress and achieves all his goals. I wish him good luck”he concluded. The Dutch attacking midfielder is not having the best possible start to the season with Spurs, where he has struggled to be decisive even though he is not playing in his preferred position.
