Mbappé: France won't let me play until I'm 41, and any club in the world wants to have Olise

Kylian Mbappé, the forward for Real Madrid and captain of the France national team, discussed several important topics during a lengthy interview with German newspaper 'Bild', including the news linking his compatriot Michael Olise with a move to Real Madrid during the last summer transfer window.

Kylian Mbappé commented on Ousmane Dembélé's potential move to Real Madrid this summer: "I heard about these speculations, but I know this kind of situation well. When I was a player at Paris Saint-Germain, there were countless rumors. I think it would be disrespectful to advise a player to change clubs. That would be unfair to Bayern Munich, especially since Bayern is a big club and Michael can achieve a lot with them."

Real Madrid star added: "But there is one thing clear, any club in the world would want to have Michael Olise. He is an exceptional player."

Mbappé also addressed his Real Madrid teammate, German Antonio Rüdiger, specifically the criticism he faces in his country due to his sometimes controversial style and behavior on the pitch.

The French star explained: "I think many fans believe he is a bit crazy, but that is his way of playing. Antonio is the best example that people should not be judged solely by their behavior on the pitch."

He added: "Of course, on the pitch he is crazy, because of the way he tackles and behaves, but in the dressing room he is completely different. He is a nice person and cares about others."

Kylian Mbappé also talked about his childhood idol, Cristiano Ronaldo, who continues to play for his country despite reaching 41 years old, touching on the possibility of him also continuing to play until that age.

He concluded by saying: "We have to be honest, and looking at the national team I play for, France will not allow me to play until I am 41 years old (laughs). But Cristiano proves that if you are in good physical and mental shape, you can play at this high level for a long time. As for me, I don't think it will be the case."
