DC United coach Wayne Rooney spoke about Kylian Mbappe's future in an interview with 'Sports 18'. He said that to reach Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo's level, he must sign for a club other than PSG, preferably Man Utd or Real Madrid. He believes that he has now done everything he had to do at PSG so it makes sense for him to leave.

Wayne Rooney believes that Kylian Mbappe should leave PSG and try and sign for Man Utd or Real Madrid. At a time when the Frenchman is hurt after losing the World Cup final in Qatar and speculation grows over Mbappe leaving PSG in January, Rooney spoke to 'Sports 18'.,

"I think he needs to leave that club and go to the Premier League. PSG are a massive club, but I think he’s done everything he can in the Ligue 1. Maybe a Manchester United or Real Madrid. If he needs to reach the level of Messi and Ronaldo I think he needs to join Manchester United or Real Madrid," Rooney said. There had already been a strong possibility of the Frenchman moving to Real Madrid and he turned it down.

With regards to Man Utd, it is true that the Red Devils are alert to what happens with Galtier's player. In fact, there is talk in the British press of Man Utd being prepared to make big money deals. That would lead to Man Utd having a star at the club after Cristiano Ronaldo's departure.

Mbappe, while all this is talked about, has to be at PSG for almost the rest of the season. As he has a contract until 2025, the ideal thing, if it is confirmed that he wants to change club, is for him to wait until the summer so that PSG do not refuse to let him go. The French side will likely ask for a extortionate price for him.
