5 reasons why Kylian Mbappe is a better option than Neymar for Madrid

The France star is only 19 and did two things in this tournament that only one other player could: scoring twice in a knock-out game at the World Cup when he ripped apart Argentina in the round of 16 and score a goal in the final of the World Cup.

The last time a teenager achieved the aforementioned feat was in 1958 and it was the great Pele who was at the end of it. At such a young age, Kylian Mbappe is already flying and we are yet to see him in his peak.

As a result, should Madrid sign him over Neymar, they will then have a player who could serve them for a long period of time than the Brazilian. At 26, the former Santos star might be at his peak right now but he could only provide only 5-7 years of service to the Galacticos when compared to Mbappe's 11-13 years.
