I ALWAYS MISS PLAYING WITH LEO MESSI, KYLIAN MBAPPE DROPS HEARTFELT CONFESSION
By Sefiu Ajape
Lionel Messi and Neymar left PSG last summer. The likes of Dembele, Muani, and Ramos who replaced them, have not achieved the same level of success as the legendary pair. It appears that Mbappe isn’t satisfied with the result.
After the match against Toulouse, the French player was questioned concerning the Inter Miami star.
Mbappe stated on Amazon Prime Video, “You always miss playing with Messi.” For a striker like me who likes to devour space, with him you go with the certainty that you can have the ball. It was a luxury that only he can give you.”
He concluded by saying, “But beyond that, playing with Messi was special.”
However, Messi was used more as a playmaker than a goal scorer while he was a player for PSG.
The Argentine wizard has 22 goals and 31 assists in 58 Ligue 1 games. A dynamic that Mbappe enjoyed, according to his words.
The PSG attacker was named the Ligue 1 player of the season a few months ago. In his acceptance speech, he acknowledged Lionel Messi’s impact on his development as a player.
Mbappe said, “I want to thank all the players. Winning the league is a great honor for us. I want to thank Leo Messi, who really helped me a lot this season, the staff, the management, and the people who work behind the scenes.”
