"Mbappé is hugely important, that goes without saying. His goals are fundamental, of course, but that's not all: his personality, his leadership, the influence he has on the group day in, day out... those are intangible things, but just as crucial for building cohesion and unity. The goals—that's his natural talent," said the former Bayern player.
