Kylian Mbappe is Cristiano Ronaldo’s biggest fan and there is no secret about it as Mbappe’s father told back in 2016,
“Kylian is a Real Madrid fan and his idol is Cristiano Ronaldo. He used to spend hours watching videos [of Ronaldo] on the internet.”
After an alteration of time span, Mbappe faced Cristiano Ronaldo as an opponent, but the Frenchman is never shy away from spending a fan-boy moment with the legendary figure.
PSG played a friendly against the Saudi combined team named Riyadh All-Star XI, led by Cristiano Ronaldo, and exploited Mbappe another chance to share the pitch with his idol.
During the match, a moment caught the attention of the fans when Mbappe checked on Ronaldo’s cheek after the former Manchester United man was punched accidentally by the PSG goalkeeper Keylor Navas following a coming together.
Ronaldo seemed to be okay and scored two goals for his side and was seen really happy after returning to the pitch in a month while appreciating Mbappe’s sweet gesture towards him.

Earlier, Abdou Diallo of PSG and Argentina revealed the craze Mbappe has for Ronaldo and said, “Cristiano Ronaldo is literally everything to Kylian Mbappe”.
“If you mention Lionel Messi against Cristiano, Mbappe will debate with you for at least an hour. For him, Cristiano is untouchable.”- the PSG defender further added.
It will remain to be seen if Mbappe’s career would shape like Ronaldo’s or not but the way the former World Cup winner is approaching, there remains open every possibility for the Frenchman that he could emulate Ronaldo’s feat step by step.
