Kylian Mbappe’s open letter to Cristiano Ronaldo, Leo Messi, and Neymar

Straight after winning the World Cup, the Mbappe lad sent me this letter to publish on DT (he even spelled out his name to be sure I got it right), so have a read. —Bert

 

Dear Cristiano, Leo, and Neymar,

LOL. So is that it?

You guys have been crying over this World Cup business for years now, but I just won it on my first try. Was this supposed to be hard? Smh.

I mean, Leo and Cristiano, neither one of you have ever even scored a goal in the knockout stage, but I scored three in my first go, including one in the final. I’m 19 and both of you are like a million years old. How have neither of you done this yet? Pele scored in the final as a teenager too, so it’s not like I’m the only one. Winning in Fortnite is harder. I mean, this was so easy that I feel bad keeping the money they gave me for playing, so I’m giving it all to charity.

Cristiano, I used to have pictures of you all over my bedroom when I was little. It inspired me (up to a certain point lol). So maybe you should put pictures of me all over your bedroom now. It could inspire you to do better, you know? I’ll send you and Leo and bunch of pics of me holding the World Cup trophy so you can do whatever you want with them. Consider them a gift, but you don’t have to thank me. I just feel really bad that you guys can’t do this. Is it, like, some kind of stage fright? Do you somehow forget what to do when the whole world is watching? I don’t understand. Just do what I did: Go out, score goals, and win the World Cup. Simple.

I know, I know—you guys have had to deal with teammates like Higuain and Pepe, but I had Giroud. So you can’t say I didn’t have obstacles like you.

But even though you guys somehow haven’t won the World Cup, you have both still done lots of cool stuff! Winning all those Ballon d’Or awards—wow! You have, what, a total of 10 between you? Since I’m still only 19, that means I could win that many by the time I’m 30. Wouldn’t it be funny if I won the World Cup AND as many Ballons d’Or as both of you combined? Hahaha.

Anyway, I have to stop writing now because Pavard’s arm is getting tired from holding the World Cup trophy for too long. It’s pretty crazy that even he has more World Cup knockout stage goals than both of you. He’s only 22 btw. And he’s a defender. 😂

Oh, and Neymar…welcome to life in my shadow, bruh.

Enviably yours,

The New King

P.S. Leo, can you see if they’ll invite France to a Copa America soon? It would be amazing to win that before you, too!

    Kylian I’m really sad to read such a self serving letter,I don’t know if you wrote that or some else did that for you ,first of all you need to learn some respect something you don’t have ,you should be thankful that France not you won the World Cup and is not yours to keep , when it comes to Messi you could not even shine his shoes, Ronaldo well you’re just like him same attitude, if it wasn’t because you’re fast France would not have won besides you should thank the Croatian team for those two mistakes otherwise you would not be talking trash , save all that for when you retire in the mean time shut your mouth and be humble. And one more thing I’ll suggest to you that if France is invited to Copa America call in sick and stay where you are .
