Former Juventus Turin player Felipe Melo has criticised France striker Kylian Mbappe, who said in an interview that South American football is underdeveloped compared to European football.
- Mbappe is a moron. As for me, this is nonsense. Argentina became the world champion, and Messi is the best player in the tournament. There is something to strive for. You can't talk like that about South American football, which has so many World Cup victories. What can Mbappe talk about?
Mbappe is a great footballer who can win three Ballon d'Ors, but you need to keep your mouth shut. I believe that South American football is a benchmark. We have players who can play and score," said Felipe Melo.
