'I ask him how did you do it' — Kylian Mbappe reveals how he learned from Messi at PSG
Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe has revealed that he learned a lot from his time with Lionel Messi at Paris Saint-Germain.
The 25-year-old was teammates with the Argentina international for two seasons in Paris. While they had little success in Europe, they combined well to help PSG maintain their dominance in Ligue 1, winning the two league titles available in the duration.
Messi did not only help the France international add trophies to his cabinet; however, as according to Mbappe, the most decorated footballer of all time also helped sharpen his skills.

What Mbappe said
Amid a season of struggles abroad and controversy from back home in France, Mbappe sat down with Cliquetv to address some of the rumours about him.
He spoke at length about many issues; one such was his relationship with Messi at PSG. The Real Madrid man famously idolises Cristiano Ronaldo; hence, he was rumoured to have had a sour relationship with the Portuguese's counterpart, Messi, during their time as teammates.
According to Mbappe, a lot of their relationship was student-teacher, as he spent the time like a sponge, soaking up knowledge from Messi.
“Messi does everything well. You can learn everything from a guy like that,’ Mbappe told the outlet. “I used to go up to him and ask him: How do you do this? How do you do that?”
