In the space of a year, PSG witnessed the departures of Neymar (Al-Hilal) and Kylian Mbappé (Real Madrid). Two big losses for the capital club if we translate the words of Moise Kean. Ex-teammate of the Brazilian and the Frenchman at Paris Saint-Germain, Kean did not hide his admiration for their creative genius.
For six seasons, namely between 2017 and 2023, Neymar (32 years old) and Kylian Mbappé (25 years old) played together at PSG. The Frenchman and the Brazilian were able to combine and impress everyone both in training and during matches. Moise Kean (24 years old) had the opportunity, during a loan season in 2020/2021, to rub shoulders with the two former attackers of PSG.
“Even if you don’t want to learn, just by watching them you learn”
Pour The Athleticthe current center forward of the Fiorentina sang the praises of Kylian Mbappé and Neymar. “We can only learn from working with champions like Mbappé and Neymar. Even if you don't want to learn, just by watching them you learn. Even if we tell ourselves that there is nothing to learn from them, we look at them and we see things that are not obvious.”
“I had the chance to play with them”
Moise Kean also recognized how lucky he was to be able to learn alongside the two players who pushed him to break free. “You look at them and you see things that aren't normal and you're like, 'I want to try that.' I had the chance to play with them and they taught me a lot, especially Mbappé and Ney.”
