Jose Mourinho believes that Kylian Mbappe is more valuable than both Juventus and Barcelona stars Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

While fans and pundits alike like to discuss how the Paris Saint-Germain player could shape into the best player in the world in five-10 years, the ex-Manchester United boss wants to focus on how Mbappe is already up there among the best.

Mourinho believes that, given the player’s age, he would be the most expensive player in a hypothetical transfer.

“For a player like Mbappe, when you speak about the future, you don’t need to say what he’s going to be like in five years’ time, in 10 years’ time,” Mourinho told beIN Sports.

“Just focus on now. He’s absolutely incredible.

“I think going by his age and [and considering] the age of Cristiano, of Messi, [both] over 30, Neymar is 27… when you go to the market level and age is also a factor, I think he’s the most valuable player in the world.

“In a hypothetical transfer, he’s the most expensive player in football now. In terms of his qualities, [he is] unbelievable. One word is enough. It means everything.”
