Kylian Mbappe Plays Down 'Supposed Rivalry' with Neymar at PSG
Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe has played down the "supposed rivalry" that exists between himself and team-mate Neymar at the Parc des Princes.
The 21-year-old told France Football (h/t Get French Football News) that when he arrived at PSG from Monaco he told the Brazilian he was there to help him and not to provide competition.
"When I arrived in Paris, there was not a debate. It was him (Neymar) who was the superstar, that I had come to shoulder, help. He injured himself, he did not have a successful World Cup and I won it. And at that point, stories started to come out about a supposed rivalry between us, about my apparent desire to take his place.
