The 1998 world champion has carefully followed the journey of the Parisian prodigy since his debut in Monaco in 2016. David Trezeguet, French co-top scorer in a single edition of the Champions League (8) with Ben Yedder (2017-2018) and… Mbappé, welcomes the new capital performance of the PSG striker, author of a double this Wednesday in Munich (2-3).
Are you amazed by Mbappé's performances in the Champions League?
DAVID TREZEGUET.
I know his qualities of speed, his incredible physical and technical capacities, but I admit, he always amazes me.
Great games belong to great players.
This is not a trivial sentence.
Kylian has once again demonstrated this brilliantly.
It is the mark of the grown-ups.
He is more motivated by these very high level meetings.
It feels.
We had already seen this in Barcelona.
It gives off an impression of ease.
He is strong in his body and in his head.
When he is expected, he responds present.
It is sometimes a little less obvious in Ligue 1, even if his statistics also speak for him

.
Kylian Mbappé once again responded present in a great meeting by scoring this Wednesday a double in Munich against Bayern, in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

It seems impervious to doubt and pressure ...
An attacker is fragile.
Sometimes a goalless period is enough to disrupt it.
He did not score in the March games with the Blues, but he has already moved on.
It is the privilege of age and also one of its character traits.
He never asks a question.
Do you prefer it pointed or on one side?
He is more at ease when he moves on the left and thus picks up speed.
His second goal in Munich illustrates this perfectly.
But he also assimilates very well the specificities of the center-forward position.
Does he have any similarities with Thierry Henry?
The “Titi” that I knew in Monaco was very fast, but more confined to the left flank.
Kylian sweeps the attacking front further.
But the parallel between the two is tempting.
Their background is very rich and they share this efficiency in the last gesture.

At this rate, can he pose as a credible candidate for the Golden Ball?
He is on the right track anyway.
He asserts himself as the legitimate successor of Messi or Ronaldo.
He is best placed to take their place.

Future of Kylian Mbappé: PSG is getting impatient
Is he ahead of his distance duel with Haaland?
They are different on a physical level, but come together in talent.
Mentally, they are both winners.
Haaland shines with a team less armed than Paris.
These two players embody the present and the future.
We haven't finished talking about them.
Afterwards, Kylian has already achieved more, it depends on his age

, but also his nationality.
He is world champion.
Norway, with all due respect for this nation, is not at the level of the Blues.
After its success in Bavaria, are you now making PSG the favorite for qualifying for the semi-finals?
Paris has taken a step forward and has all the cards in hand to make it to the semi-finals.
But we will have to be wary, because opposite it is Bayern.
The Germans will not let go, even if the absence of Lewandowski represents a major handicap.
It is unique.
