Paris Saint-Germain manager, Luis Enrique has hailed Kylian Mbappe as the world’s best player.

Enrique, who managed Lionel Messi at Barcelona, stated this after Mbappe scored a goal in PSG’s UEFA Champions League 2-0 win over Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday, September 19, 2023.

Mbappe opened the scoring from the spot four minutes into the second period before Achraf Hakimi doubled the lead for PSG.

The France international also made four dribbles and won five duels during the encounter.

Speaking after the game, Enrique said in a press conference about Mbappe, “Kylian for me is the best player in the world.

“But more than his technical qualities, what struck me is his human quality.

“It is a pleasure to have him in the locker room, he’s a leader who always has a smile."

Mbappé is one of the favourites to win the Ballon d’Or later this year, an individual prize that has so far eluded him.
