I will retire instead of picking between Ronaldo and Messi – Mbappe

PSG star, Kylian Mbappe has stated that he would prefer to retired instead of chosing one of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi for his team.

The Frenchman stated that picking one would be at the expense of another because both players are two monsters not worth denigrating.

If I had the choice between Messi and Ronaldo for my team I’d retire and take both of them.

[That way, I’d] be sure that we win. I could choose one, but it would likely be at the expense of the other.

He added:

And you don’t have the right to denigrate one of these two monsters. To choose one would be an insult to everything that the other has achieved.

But the 20-year-old did used to have a preference.

Mbappe continued:

When I was younger, I had fun comparing them both. From one year to the next I changed, even though I admit to having defended Ronaldo more often.

But now I’m grown up I’m less certain. There are the Barca followers who prefer [Johan] Cruyff and Messi.

And there are others who will say that Ronaldo is the greatest athlete that football has known and has won things wherever he went.
