Lionel Messi has admired the talent of Mbappe while heaping praise on his contribution towards PSG. "Kylian is a different player. He's a beast, he's very strong one-on-one, he finds space and he's very quick, Messi told TUDN. The Argentine maestro also stressed that Mbappe is a complete player and has the potential to be one of the best in coming years.
