Kylian Mbappe on Emi Martinez's celebrations

Kylian Mbappe was quizzed about Emi Martinez's celebrations after the FIFA World Cup. He claimed that there was nothing against the Argentine. He did not want to waste time thinking about the antics and believed it was best to ignore them.

He said:

"The celebrations, they're not my problem. I don't waste any energy on such futile things. What's important for me is to give the best of myself for my club, and we're looking forward to Leo [Messi] returning to continue scoring and winning matches."

Mbappe continued:

"I talked with him [Messi] after the match [World Cup], I congratulated him. It was a life goal for him, for me as well, but I failed, so you must always remain a good sportsman. Personally, I will never get over it [losing the final]. But my club is not responsible for this failure of our team, [so] I've tried to return with the most positive energy possible."
