Being a professional player in soccer isn’t an easy task. Many try, but only a few succeed. That’s why being great is that much rare. Names like Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Diego Maradona, and Pele don’t come often and they are far better than their competitors. French prodigy Kylian Mbappe talked about who he considers being the perfect player in soccer. Kylian Mbappe is a rising soccer star and is ready to take the torch from Ronaldo and Messi.

Kylian Mbappe was the biggest factor in the successful final run of France in the 2022 World Cup. He won the golden boot but had to see Lionel Messi lifting the trophy Mbappe wanted the most. Started with a 2-0 trail, Mbappe brought France back in the fight by 2 quick goals. When they trailed again in extra time, it was Mbappe again who saved France and scored another equalizer.

He did everything in his power to win the world cup for France. He could only take one kick in the penalty shoot-out and had to see his peer failing to score against the mind master Emiliano Martinez.

What makes a perfect player, as per Mbappe?

Kylian Mbappe is eager to learn. He always practices alongside players like Karim Benzema, Lionel Messi, and Neymar. In this era, he played with or against the greatest name in soccer. He is just 24 and many experts believe Mbappe is going to rule soccer in the coming time after Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo leave, as they did.

When asked about what he would take to make a perfect player. Kylian Mbappe came up with an interesting answer. He said, “I would choose Messi’s left foot, Neymar’s right foot, Cristiano Ronaldo’s mentality and Buffon’s class.” Clearly, the French soccer star knows his soccer idols. Neymar has even turned Mbappe into Patrick Bateman with his skills.
