Kylian Mbappe - An ATG in the making?

[Rajdeep]

@Rajdeep

Here are some achievements for Mbappe and he is just 26 years old:

- Won a World Cup. Could've won two as France lost 2022 final.
- Just 10 goals away from being the all-time highest scorer for France.
- Just 5 goals away from being the all-time highest scorer in World Cups.
- All-time top scorer for PSG.

So, it is not far-fetched to say he can be in the same league as Pele/Messi/Maradona if he continues like this.

Bhai mere...I am not saying he is a bad player. However, he is no where at the same level where Ronaldo & Messi was during the same age/time. I see Mbappe more of a Neymar level player as opposed to Messi.

Top scorer for PSG doesn't mean much, isn't it? His real test is now playing for Madrid where both Rodrigo and Junior were equally good, if not better than him. When Ronaldo was in Madrid, he was almost the defacto king which is not the case with Mbappe yet.

Real forward Mbappe in hospital

Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe is in hospital with gastroenteritis after missing their Club World Cup opener against Al-Hilal.

The France captain, 26, missed training on Tuesday with a fever and did not play in Wednesday's 1-1 draw against the Saudi Arabian side.

A Real statement on Thursday said Mbappe has "an acute case of gastroenteritis" and was admitted to hospital for "a series of tests".

Gastroenteritis is an infection in the gut which can cause vomiting and diarrhoea.

Real's next game is against Pachuca on Sunday at 20:00 BST.

Depending on how Mbappe responds to treatment, he is likely to miss that game but could potentially return for Real's final group game against RB Salzburg on 26 June.

Mbappe scored 43 goals in 56 games in all competitions for Real in his first season after joining on a free transfer from Paris St-Germain.

This is Real's first competition under Xabi Alonso, who replaced Carlo Ancelotti as manager at the end of the La Liga season.

Real won the Uefa Super Cup and Fifa Intercontinental Cup in Mbappe's first season in Spanish football.

Mbappe 'better' but will miss game against Pachuca

Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso says striker Kylian Mbappe is "better" after an illness and, while he will miss his side's Fifa Club World Cup match against Pachuca on Sunday, he could return for their final group game.

Mbappe was absent from training on Tuesday with a fever and missed his side's 1-1 draw against Saudi Arabia's Al-Hilal in Miami on Wednesday.

The 26-year-old was admitted to hospital with what Real described as an "acute case of gastroenteritis" before being released on Thursday and returning to the La Liga club's training complex in Palm Beach.

He has not travelled with his team-mates for Real Madrid's games against Mexican side Pachuca on Sunday at 20:00 BST but could make his first appearance at the tournament when his side face Red Bull Salzburg on Friday at 02:00 BST.

Mbappe files harassment complaint against PSG and judicial officials are investigating

The Real Madrid star is at odds with his former club, arguing PSG owes him €55 million ($61 million) in unpaid wages.
Mbappe is also unhappy with the way he was treated by the Ligue 1 club when the France captain was sidelined before the 2023-24 season, following his decision not to extend his club contract.

The prosecutor’s office said Mbappe is “denouncing the ‘lofting’ he claimed to have been subjected to at Paris Saint-Germain.” The word lofting is used in France to describe a practice that involves isolating a player from the main squad for sporting, administrative, or disciplinary reasons.

Mbappe joined Real Madrid last summer on a free transfer after scoring a club-record 256 goals in seven years at PSG, which won the Champions League without him this year.

Mbappe’s relationship with PSG ended amid deep tensions, and some fans booed him in his last home game at Parc des Princes. PSG felt let down by Mbappe after offering him the most lucrative contract in club history when he signed a new contract in 2022.

But Mbappe was frustrated because he felt promises to sign key players were not kept. When he signed that deal, he was paraded in front of fans holding up a jersey with 2025 on it. Mbappe was reportedly annoyed because the contract was until 2024 — with a player’s option for an extra season.

Mbappe stunned PSG in June 2023 by informing the club he would not take the option for an extra year. With his contract effectively into its final year, it put PSG in the position of needing to sell Mbappe to avoid losing him for nothing when the contract expired.

His PSG career could have ended that summer amid a tense transfer standoff.

After telling the club he would not extend, Mbappe was left off a preseason tour to Japan and South Korea and forced to train with fringe players. PSG said it would rather sell him than let the player leave for free in 2024, but he rejected a €300 million move to Saudi Arabia team Al-Hilal.

PSG left Mbappe out of the opening league game of that season but he soon returned to the lineup following talks.

Mbappe’s legal team said in April it would start an action against PSG for harassment because of the way he was treated at the time.
