The medium-term future of Kylian Mbappé continues to fuel debate.
Top scorer in Ligue 1, Kylian Mbappé continues to break records. Dizzying statistics which do not spare the star from criticism. Singled out for his contribution to the game or his low defensive investment, the Bondy prodigy saw Pierre Ménès come to his aid.
“ I think when you are 25 you are talking about a player who was world champion, finalist of the World Cup, who scored 3 goals in the final, who has been top scorer in the French championship for 5 years, who has in the Champions League final we no longer talk about growing up, the word growing no longer has any meaning“, launched Pierre Ménès on his blog.
The former Canal Football Club columnist is convinced: Kylian Mbappé will end up as a center forward, like Thierry Henry.
“ I think that given the goals he scores, I’m not worried about him, anyway I’m convinced that sooner or later he will end up as a center forward. Mbappé must, in statistical terms, maintain himself at the very, very high level of where his performances have placed him. After he is 25, I think he still has 3 or 4 years left in full possession of his physical means and then he will have to reinvent himself“. A change that has already started.
