Mbappe takes 'old man' dig at Henry

There is a clear bond between the two greatest French forwards of their respective generations, even if they never had the chance to share a pitch. Thierry Henry, now 48, remains a constant source of inspiration for Kylian Mbappe, who is currently chasing down the final few goals needed to surpass Olivier Giroud as Les Bleus' all-time record goalscorer.

Ekitike opens up on playing with Messi, Neymar & Mbappe at PSG

Liverpool forward Hugo Ekitike believes his "difficult" stint at Paris Saint-Germain was the perfect bridge to stardom. Despite struggling for consistent minutes in the French capital, the 23-year-old insists that sharing a dressing room with Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, and Neymar provided him with an incomparable education that is now paying dividends in the Premier League.

Henry exclusive: Mbappe destroyed for his high standards

Thierry Henry has leapt to the defence of Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe, insisting his fellow Frenchman has been unfairly criticised in his career due to the high standards expected of him. Mbappe rose to stardom with AS Monaco before securing a nine-figure move to Paris Saint-Germain and winning the World Cup with France as a key starter while still a teenager. To date, Mbappe has scored 365 times in 460 club appearances, while he has also grabbed 55 goals in 94 caps for France, second to only Olivier Giroud in Les Bleus' all-time leading scorers list. Despite these many accolades, Mbappe has never won the Champions League as a player, and despite being tipped to take home many Ballon d'Or awards in an era after Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo's duopoly, he has yet to claim a Golden Ball for himself.
