Kylian Mbappé loves football, and former Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Idrissa Gueye highlights that Frenchmen can watch any club regardless of where they are in the table.
Gueye recently spoke about the 25-year-old watching Everton matches, and he even noted Lionel Messi’s reaction to watching the Toffees. However, the Argentine wasn’t as invested as Mbappé when watching the English club.
“Mbappe, yeah he would watch Everton,” Gueye said. “He liked to watch every game. [Lionel] Messi, no. It was difficult for me because we were losing a lot and he would say, ‘Bro come on you see your team is losing and playing like this?’ but it was funny.”

Mbappé is a soon-to-be free agent, but it’s safe to say he’s not going to Everton. However, some might find it surprising that the winger won’t consider a move to the Premier League. Liverpool had long been a rumored suitor for the Frenchman.
Nonetheless, it seems the only time English clubs will see Mbappé is in any international competition, as the forward is reportedly heading to join Real Madrid. Barring any unforeseen events, the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner will play for Los Blancos, as reports suggest that final details remain for an agreement.
