J. Guardiola: It's too early to compare K. Mbappe to L. Messi

"Man City" coach Josep Guardiola tipped his hat to Paris Saint-Germain talent Kylian Mbappe, but at the same time emphasized that the forward will have to sweat a lot before catching up to "Barcelona" leader Lionel Messi.

"Mbappe is already a top-class player, and he will become even better in the future, I am convinced of that.

However, comparing him to what L. Messi has accomplished in the last 10-12 years is still too early.

During a season, the Argentine plays 60-70 matches, constantly scoring goals and providing assists in important games, never getting injured, playing every three days.

He avoids injuries because he takes care of his body.

Therefore, let's not talk about potential successors yet and let Mbappe demonstrate his mastery, and then we will give our evaluations", said the Catalan.
