Ronaldo likens Mbappé to his peak in rare New York interview | OneFootball

According to L'Équipe, Ronaldo granted a rare interview in New York after nearly five years of pursuit.

In it, he said Mbappé's style of play reminds him of himself at his peak.

Such parallels are commonplace when drawn by others, less so when made by the Brazilian himself.

The former Brazil international has 62 goals in 98 caps. He also addressed today's game, from Neymar to Messi, as well as the France captain and Zidane, whom he knew as a player at Real Madrid.

The piece explains the conditions that allowed the interview to happen.
