Half of Europe wants Mbappe

All of you were waiting for his name at number 1, weren’t you? Gotcha!

After taking the world by storm last season, Mbappe has become somewhat of a household name at the mere age of 18. The last time a teenager made such waves was back when Lionel Messi was breaking into the Barcelona first team – and Kylian Mbappe might just go on to take the mantle of the best from the Argentine in the future.

It was only back in November last year when he broke into the first team and now he is the most coveted player in Europe, despite the price tag over his head. Anyone who watched him last season, which is most of you, will already know of his abilities.

As a forward, there is already nothing wrong with him. At the mere age of 18, all he has is strengths and strengths. Unlike the others, he doesn’t have to worry about weaknesses and focus only improving his strengths, which is what makes him such a dangerous potential.
