For his age, Mbappe is exceedingly talented, and only few players can claim to have performed at this high a level at such a young age, if Mbappe continues with his trajectory, he will definitely become one off the greatest footballers in history.

There is the feeling that Neymar and Hazard have reached their peaks, at 26 and 27, there is almost no more room for improvement and we have seen the best of both players.

With Mbappe however, the reverse is the case as he has a lot of years ahead of him to gain useful experience and maturity which will undoubtedly aid in the improvement of his game, and he will definitely be an asset for Real Madrid.

Though numerous examples abound of exceedingly talented young players who frittered out in their later careers, Mbappe has shown that he has the requisite humility and work ethic to make a success out of his career.

With his high performance level at a very young age, it is exciting to think of what the future has in store if he fulfills his potential.

Mbappe is a shining light, and at just 19 years the PSG forward has the world at his feet. Real Madrid should do well to be the platform from which he conquers the footballing world.
