Ex-Arsenal striker Jeremie Aliadiere says Kylian Mbappe is the "best player in the world" but thinks his "ego must be hurt" after watching his former club Paris Saint-Germain win the Champions League last season. Luis Enrique helped the Ligue 1 giants win their maiden European title just a year after the France captain left for Real Madrid as a free agent.

ToggleMbappe had a memorable debut campaign at Santiago Bernabeu in the 2024-25 season as he scored 44 goals in 59 appearances for Real Madrid across all competitions, but the Frenchman failed to win a major trophy. The Spanish giants were knocked out of the Champions League quarter-finals by Arsenal and finished second to Barcelona in La Liga and the Copa del Rey.

Mbappe's departure from PSG as a free agent in the summer of 2024 riled many fans in France, leading to abuse of the striker in the stands at the Parc des Princes. However, Aliadiere has called out the "disrespect" that Mbappe has received, with the ex-forward labelling him the world's best player.
Speaking to , the 42-year-old said: "I think PSG would have still won everything with Kylian Mbappe in the team. I think they actually would've been even stronger. Luis Enrique would have built that team around him and it would’ve had even more strength. Mbappe had to battle with Lionel Messi and Neymar but they won everything after he left. I think his ego must be a bit hurt, but he had the best season for a new Real Madrid signing ever, even better than Zinedine Zidane or Cristiano Ronaldo. For me, Mbappe is being disrespected a bit. He is the best player in the world."
Xabi Alonso's Madrid side, who reached the semi-finals of this summer's Club World Cup in the United States, will be back in action next month as they kick off their new La Liga season on August 19 with a match against Osasuna at home.
