Varane wants to see Mbappe alongside history-maker Ronaldo

Raphael Varane has lauded history-maker
Cristiano Ronaldo and would love to see Kylian
Mbappe playing alongside him at Real Madrid.
Ronaldo has enjoyed yet another stellar campaign,
scoring 25 top-flight goals to help Madrid to their
first LaLiga title since 2012, while surpassing 100
Champions League strikes en route to the final
against Juventus.
While Ronaldo's legend is well established, another
player has emerged on the world stage this year in
the shape of Monaco's Mbappe, who is attracting
interest from Europe's biggest clubs – including
Varane's Madrid.
"Mbappe is a very good youngster with a huge
potential," the France defender told Telefoot. "It
would be a pleasure to see him here. In addition to
that he is French, so he would be welcome. We will
surely get the chance to discuss this."
Portugal star Ronaldo is vying with legendary Juve
goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon for the Ballon d'Or and
Varane was effusive in his praise for both players.
He said: "They are immense. They made history.
Their duel in the next game will have an influence
on the Ballon d'Or. We're not acknowledging
enough how Ronaldo is making football history
right now. I'm lucky to play with him."
Zinedine Zidane's men face the Serie A champions
in Cardiff next Saturday as they seek to become the
first side to retain the Champions League title.
