'Mbappe is the most mature 18 year old I've ever met' - Burt
Hear from the journalist who met Kylian Mbappe last week in Paris.
Telegraph football correspondent Jason Burt is full of praise for the France striker: "I think he's the most mature 18-year-old football player I've ever interviewed. He makes quite an impression on you, actually. As an 18-year-old kid, he doesn't seem like a kid at all, he seems like a man but a very respectful and intelligent guy."
Burt also agrees with Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, who said Mbappe could have βbeen a star anywhereβ before he chose to move to Paris St-Germain from Monaco, adding: "He is somebody who couldn't make the wrong decision this summer, he was always going to be a star."
