I think he can surpass many.“Why did they not sign him? I told Florentino to sign Mbappe. I told him when we saw each other at Fifa.” And when asked about Perez’s response, Maradona replied: “He told me…’but you know I have Cristiano’.”Mbappe has scored 10 goals in all competitions for PSG so far this season with Unai Emery's men top of Ligue 1 and through to the Champions League last 16.The French giants take on Ronaldo's Real in the first knockout round of Europe's premier club competition.</blockquote>
