Ronaldo Claims Kylian Mbappe is Following His Footsteps: “His Game Looks a Bit Like Mine”

Kylian Mbappe is one of the biggest stars in world football at the moment. The French international has risen to superstardom status at a very young age and has earned all the praise he is getting today. The PSG forward has received laurels from some of the biggest names in the game, including Ronaldo.

The Brazilian legend claimed Mbappe’s game is a bit like his.

Getting such praise from the legend himself is a big thing, even for someone like Kylian Mbappe.

For years, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have dominated world football. But it seems Kylian Mbappe is the future and maybe the present as well.

In R9: The Film, produced by RMC Sport, Ronaldo said, “Mbappe has great qualities. His technique, his speed, his sense of purpose. If we were to be compared… Yes, I think his game looks a bit like mine.”

Notably, the French forward is rumored to leave PSG at the end of this season. Real Madrid looks like the front runners to sign Mbappe this summer. But before he leaves, he will definitely want to lift the UEFA Champions League trophy with PSG this year.

Can Kylian Mbappe lead PSG to Champions League glory?

Paris Saint-Germain signed superstars like Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos last summer to bolster their team. But it is Kylian Mbappe who is once again proving to be the main man for the French side as he has netted 5 goals in 7 Champions League games.

PSG needed a moment of magic from someone after failing to score for 93 minutes, and Kylian Mbappe stepped up to the occasion. He scored a brilliant goal in the 94th minute to give the French side an advantage to take to Santiago Bernabeu.

However, as the tie is far from over, Mbappe & co. need to produce all the goods again to get through to the next round. Do you think Mbappe can shine once again in the 2nd leg? Let us know in the comments below.
