French star Kylian Mbappe spoke about Barcelona's international Spanish star Lamine Yamal, praising his great passion for football and calling for him to be kept away from media pressures.

Mbappe said in his remarks, "I think everyone can see Yamal's great passion for football, and that is the one thing he should never lose... the passion."

The captain of the French national team added: "People talk a lot about his personal life, but they should leave him alone. He is a wonderful player, but in the end, he is just an 18-year-old young man who can make mistakes and learn from his own experiences. We just need to look at what he offers on the field; everything else doesn't matter."

Mbappe concluded his remarks by stating: "He has great talent and will carve his own path in football."
