Mbappe similar to Henry, will be like Ronaldo in the future – Djorkaeff

The former France international thinks the PSG star reminds him of Thierry Henry, but will grow into playing like the Portuguese superstar

Kylian Mbappe has already drawn comparisons to Pele due to his exploits at the World Cup, and the 19-year-old has now been compared to Thierry Henry and Brazil legend Ronaldo by a former French World Cup winner.

Youri Djorkaeff says the youngster is similar to Thierry Henry with how he plays now, drifting on the wing and working in space, but will be comparable to the Brazilian striker in a few years as he develops his game.
