The Real Madrid legend does not forget to welcome the French striker: his role is similar to that of the striker himself
Kylian Mbappé has arrived at Real Madrid with a role similar to that of Cristiano Ronaldo a decade ago, that of star. The French striker has been blessed by the Portuguese star, who has spoken on his YouTube channel about his arrival at the Santiago Bernabéu: "I think Mbappé will do well. The structure of the club is good and solid. They have a great coach. Then there is the President, Florentino, who has been there for a long time. I think it will not be a big problem because of his talent. He has already shown it."
Cristiano Ronaldo also remembers Pepe's farewell to football, who has hung up his boots at 41 years of age: "When you reach a certain age, the key is your mind. If you treat your body well for a long time, it will respect you. If they want to play for 4 or 5 more years, you have to have a good mentality and take care of your game. Pepe and I are a good example, we take good care of ourselves. He is very professional off the field," he says.
KROOS' FAREWELL
Finally, he also remembered Toni Kroos who, like Pepe, retired this summer: "When the season ends, I have enthusiasm again. If you don't have it, it's bad. I have enthusiasm, I'm addicted to football, to scoring goals and playing at a good level. We have to respect each person's decision, we are not all the same. I respect Kroos decision because he is the type of person who is going to do something and do it. I think he could play for more years, but he may have other plans and we have to respect that,"
