Szczęsny Praises Mbappé for Always Scoring Against Him in Their Matches
Barcelona goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny has praised Kylian Mbappé after the French forward scored a hat-trick against Barcelona in their 4-3 victory over Real Madrid on Sunday. Szczęsny, who was in goal during the match, pointed out that Mbappé has consistently scored against him, with the French star netting as many as nine goals in just five matches between the two.
The former Juventus keeper spoke highly of Mbappé’s relentless mentality, saying, “Even when things are tough for his team, he never gives up. I think he’s the player who’s scored the most goals against me. In four or five games, he’s put eight or nine goals past me.”
On a personal note, Szczęsny revealed that his current club is keen to extend his contract for another two years. However, he emphasized that the final decision would be a family matter, with his wife, Marina Luczenko, playing a key role in the decision-making process.
“I’ve been offered a new two-year deal, but I need to discuss it with my family to figure out what’s best for us. Most of the decisions at home are made by my wife, and I’m completely fine with that,” Szczęsny said. In his five matches against Mbappé, Szczęsny has only managed to win twice.
