Real Madrid forward, Kylian Mbappe is trying to copy Neymar’s style of play, Kevin Diaz has said. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, the French forward is currently adding too many flicks and tricks to his game, and he constantly sees him trying really challenging moves in a bid to impress at his new club.
Diaz added that copying Neymar’s moves actually started when Mbappe was the Brazilian’s teammate at PSG.
His words, “When he’s on the ball, he tries some really challenging moves. Ever since he played with Neymar, it seems like he’s been trying to copy him with complex techniques. Sure, Kylian Mbappe has great technical skills, but when you’re not feeling confident, it’s like Thierry Henry says: just stick to what you know and do it well.”
WOW.
