LIGUE 1 – Mbappe in awe of Messi’s presence in Paris

The 2018 World Cup winner has reveled so far in the ‘unexpected opportunity’ to play alongside Barcelona legend Lionel Messi.

In an interview with L’Equipe, Mbappe said he is savoring every moment alongside the little magician and that it is a privilege to be in his position.

“I never imagined him here. He’s one of the rare players who I put in the ‘impossible-for-me-to-play-with’ category. I’m savoring every moment with him. You can’t forget that it remains a privilege. He’s shy but not on the pitch,” Mbappe explained.
