Kylian Mbappe was among France’s best players at the 2018 FIFA World Cup and will be looking to repeat the same success this term.
Dani Alves talks about the understanding of Kylian Mbappé
Former Brazilian international Dani Alves believes that Kylian Mbappé still doesn’t understand that Lionel Messi and Neymar are bigger players than him. He urged the Frenchman to make the most of their time together.
Speaking to the media, he said (via Reuters): “Kylian Mbappé is a phenomenon who still hasn’t understood that those who play with him in attack are more of a phenomenon than him.
Neymar and Messi are unique: they see and do things that nobody else sees or can do. A great player must know and understand who he plays with, your teammates enrich your qualities”.
Dani Alves was part of the PSG squad for two seasons between 2017 and 2019. He played 48 league games during his time at the Parque de los Príncipes, scoring two goals. The Brazilian helped the Parisians win two Ligue 1 titles, one Coupe de France, one Coupe da Ligue and two Trophee des Champions.
