The feeding frenzy around Kylian Mbappe has grown more and more intense over the last few months, as the forward has propelled his side even further in the Champions League with his goals.
Now fans of many clubs are waiting on the striker’s every word to find out where he might go when he leaves Monaco. The 18 year old prospect’s uncle revealed some interesting info as reported in the Metro today.
The paper quotes Pierre Mbappe as saying that the forward knows Juventus (Monaco’s next opponent in the Champions League) very well.
“He watches their games every week… he also watches Real Madrid, Barcelona and Chelsea”
So it seems as though the youngster’s interest in the Blues is more academic than passionate: he watches all the top teams in order to learn more about the game at the top level. There’s certainly a lot to be learned from the teams he mentioned, and Chelsea should be flattered that he is watching them rather than Tottenham or Bayern, for example.
Regardless, this information will give fans of all the clubs mentioned a spark of hope that the prodigy might choose their team when he does finally make the move away from Monaco.
