Tuchel: Zidane loves Mbappe? People want what they can't have...

Thomas Tuchel has suggested Zinedine Zidane loves Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe more because he is unattainable.

Speaking ahead of Real Madrid and PSG's Champions League clash on Tuesday, Los Blancos boss Zidane reaffirmed his admiration for the France international, saying: "I am already in love with him."

Tuchel laughed off suggestions he was angry with Zidane for his remarks, stating he is not the only one who loves the 20-year-old World Cup winner.
