Mbappe Says He’s Not Trying to Be the Next Messi or Ronaldo

Kylian Mbappe has made it clear he’s not trying to be the next Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo, calling the two football legends irreplaceable.
Mbappe, who joined Real Madrid last summer, has already scored 30 goals in 43 matches this season. He’s now just two goals away from breaking Ronaldo’s debut-season record of 33 goals, which the Portuguese star shares with Ruud van Nistelrooy.
Despite being close to this milestone, Mbappe insists he’s not trying to follow in their footsteps. Speaking while on international duty with France, he said, “I’m not trying to take their place. They are irreplaceable.”
After hitting his 30th goal of the season, the 26-year-old remained humble, saying, “They’re legends who defined an era. If I score more than Ronaldo and Messi, it doesn’t make me better. It just means my first season is going well.”
Messi has scored over 850 career goals, while Ronaldo holds the top spot with more than 920 goals.

Ronaldo Says He Might Play with Messi Someday Even Though It May Be Hard

Cristiano Ronaldo has dropped a major hint that he could one day share the pitch with long-time rival Lionel Messi before they both hang up their boots. With his contract at Al Nassr set to expire on June 30, the Portuguese star’s future remains unclear. A move to Major League Soccer in the U.S. is one of the options on the table.
Speaking ahead of Portugal’s Nations League final against Spain, Ronaldo revealed he’s been approached by an Argentine club to join them for the Club World Cup.
“I have a lot of love for Argentina. My wife is from there,” he said. “I’ve never been to Argentina, but I want to. I was invited to play there. You never know… even at 40, anything can happen.” While he admits it might be unlikely, Ronaldo didn’t completely rule out the possibility, adding a fresh twist to the ongoing speculation about his next move.

Shchetinin Says He’s Sad He Didn’t Get to Play Against Osimhen in Match Against Super Eagles

Russia’s Mikhail Shchetinin has expressed disappointment over Victor Osimhen’s absence during their international friendly clash with Nigeria on Friday night. The Super Eagles played out a 1-1 draw against Russia at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, but Osimhen, one of Nigeria’s key strikers, was not part of the squad.
Speaking after the match, Shchetinin admitted he had been looking forward to going up against the Napoli forward, who recently wrapped up a loan spell at Galatasaray. “It’s a bit of a letdown that some of their top players didn’t come,” he told Championat. “I really wanted to see Osimhen. It would’ve been an exciting challenge.”
He also praised the Nigerian team, mentioning Victor Boniface among the players who impressed him during the encounter. Sources say Osimhen was left out of the squad by coach Eric Chelle as the striker is currently focused on settling his next club move after his loan deal in Turkey ended.

Mbappé Says He’s Happy PSG Won the Champions League Because They Deserved It

Kylian Mbappé, now a Real Madrid player, has praised Paris Saint-Germain as the best team in last season’s UEFA Champions League. Despite his dramatic exit from PSG to join the Spanish giants last summer, Mbappé showed no hard feelings and celebrated his former club’s historic triumph.
PSG clinched their first-ever Champions League title with a dominant 5-0 win over Inter Milan at the Allianz Arena, making up for their painful 1-0 loss to Bayern Munich five years earlier.
Speaking to reporters on Saturday, Mbappé said, “I was really happy for them. They’ve gone through a lot, and I’ve experienced it too. I’ve been in every part of the Champions League—except winning it.” He added, “They were clearly the best team in Europe. No doubt about it. They earned it.”
