“They are both unbelievable players, the best in the world in their position. I cannot really comment. I don’t know his situation, but I have seen some of it on the internet, on Twitter. But in all honesty, he is a great player.
“Whatever he chooses to do would be best for him. Would I want to play with a player like Kylain Mbappe? Who wouldn’t?”
The young English midfielder then openly shared his desire to play alongside a player of Mbappe’s caliber. Bellingham’s admiration for Mbappe’s skill set and the impact he can have on the pitch was evident in his response.
He posed a rhetorical question, emphasizing that it would be a dream come true for any footballer to have the opportunity to play alongside a talent like Kylian Mbappe.
