kilian mbappe He has said that he wishes he could play with the Real Madrid legend Cristiano RonaldoThe club’s all-time leading scorer.
The France international has been a teammate of other football icons but would love to play alongside five-time Ballon d’Or winner and Portugal captain Ronaldo.
“I have played with great players: Lionel Messi, neymar, [Antoine] Griezmann, [Paul] Pogba, [Karim] Benzema, Mbappé told beINsports.
“It would have been fun to play with Cristiano Ronaldo – now it’s going to be very difficult – but I was lucky to play against a legend of the game.”
Ronaldo, 39, left the Spanish giants in 2018 and now plays for Saudi Pro-League team Al Nassr.
Mbappe helped Madrid win the Intercontinental Cup on Wednesday, his second title since joining the Spanish giants in the summer after his contract with Paris Saint-Germain expired.
Speaking to disabled youngsters as part of the BeUNITED programme, 25-year-old Mbappe said he would never have left Paris Saint-Germain had it not been for joining Madrid.
“I went to the biggest club in the world,” said the 2018 World Cup winner.
“I have always said that it was the only club for which I would have left PSG. If I had not been able to go to Madrid, I would have stayed at PSG for the rest of my life.”
Although Mbappe has been brilliant for Madrid so far, he has faced criticism for his all-round performances and the team has suffered some high-profile defeats earlier in the season.
“Ever since I was 14, everyone told me I would be great,” Mbappé said.
“But when you grow up, sometimes you feel small… At first I was very hungry and it betrayed me because I was impatient. But I have passion and this competitive side.
“My dream now is to win trophies with my team, not individual awards. What big title is left for me? The Champions League, but I’m at the best club in the world for that.”
