'It would have been fun '- Kylian Mbappe admits he would have loved to team up with Cristiano Ronaldo

Kylian Mbappe, the star of Real Madrid, has stated that he would have been happy to spend the remainder of his career at Paris Saint-Germain. Mbappe eventually joined Real Madrid this summer after a protracted search and three unsuccessful efforts.

Kylian Mbappe, who just kicked off the celebration with Real Madrid's opening goal in a 3-0 victory against Pachuca to win the Intercontinental Cup, talked about the team's history and current state. The victory solidified head coach Carlo Ancelotti as Los Blancos' most successful manager and extended their recent string of impressive trophy hauls. In addition to the 14 trophies he and Miguel Muñoz had won, Ancelotti earned his 15th championship with the Spanish powerhouse. The squad had Muñoz as its coach throughout the 1960s and 1970s. 

Despite having a wild start to his career at the Real Madrid, Mbappe's contribution to Wednesday's victory maintained his amazing ability to perform at his best in games that decide championships. And in a post-match interview, Mbappe got philosophical when asked about players he wishes he could have played with.

Kylian Mbappe big fan of Cristiano Ronaldo

Kylian Mbappe chose two Real Madrid greats as the guys he would have loved to play alongside, but he had few regrets. “I would say Zinedine Zidane. I’ve played with great players: Messi, Neymar, Griezmann, Pogba, Benzema… It would have been fun to play with Cristiano Ronaldo, it will be very complicated now. But I was lucky to play against him, a sport legend.”

Mbappe and Zinedine Zidane already have a connection, and the French former manager accepted him into the team when he was a little lad. Mbappe, however, was on trial at Valdebebas when he was just 14 years old, and he grew up with pictures of Ronaldo on the wall of his bedroom.
