Mbappe would be a star in LaLiga and Premier League, says Carvalho

Portugal International Ricardo Calvaho believe former team mate in Monaco Kylian Mbappe will enjoy a stellar career in football.

Kylian Mbappe could have his pick of clubs in

LaLiga and the Premier League after firing Monaco

to Ligue 1 glory, former Portugal defender Ricardo

Carvalho says.

The teenage attacker has scored 26 goals in all

competitions this season, helping the principality

club to the Champions League semi-finals and

break Paris Saint-Germain's dominance of French

football.

Manchester rivals City and United and Spanish

champions-elect Real Madrid have been strongly

linked with close-season moves for Mbappe that

could see sums tipping nine figures.

Carvalho was a substitute alongside Mbappe before

he emerged from the bench to make his debut

against Tottenham in the 2015-16 Europa League

and, having won the Premier League with Chelsea

before playing in Spain with Real Madrid, the

Portuguese has backed the 18-year-old to make

an impact wherever he goes.

"He already showed that he was a different player...

that he had quality, talent, although we already

know the talent that he has," Carvalho told

Omnisport.
