VIDEO: ‘Better than your boy!’ - Erling Haaland vs Kylian Mbappe? Real Madrid stars Jude Bellingham & Aurelien Tchouameni in heated debate

The Real team-mates have played alongside two of the most fearsome forwards in world football. Bellingham worked with current Manchester City striker Haaland at Borussia Dortmund, while Tchouameni is an international colleague of fellow Frenchman Mbappe.

The pair are considered to be Ballon d’Or winners of the future, as they step out of the shadows cast by all-time greats Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, with both boasting remarkable records when it comes to the art of goal-scoring.

Debate as to who can be considered the best is set to rage for years to come, with Bellingham and Tchouameni appearing to offer their opinions during downtime in Spain. The video of their discussion has gone viral, although the subjects of their conversation are bleeped out.

Bellingham says someone he knows well – believed to be Haaland – is a “great guy”, but Tchouameni is reluctant to be drawn on the subject and fires back with “we don’t care”, with compatriot Eduardo Camavinga also in attendance. England midfielder Bellingham goes on to say that his “guy” is “better than your boy”, which is considered to be a reference to Mbappe. Tchouameni scoffs back with “nah, bro”, before repeating the word “please” in protest.

While Bellingham may be a big fan of Haaland, he may soon be lining up alongside Mbappe. The World Cup winner is in the process of running down his contract at Paris Saint-Germain and is said to have a lucrative contract agreed with Real Madrid that will see him move to Santiago Bernabeu as a free agent.
