Mbappe would be a star in La Liga and Premier League, says Carvalho

The ex-Real defender witnessed the forward's early days in Ligue 1 and expects the teenager to enjoy a stellar career in world football

Kylian Mbappe could have his pick of clubs in LaLiga and the Premier League after firing Monaco to Ligue 1 glory, former Portugal defender Ricardo Carvalho says.

The teenage attacker has scored 26 goals in all competitions this season, helping the principality club to the Champions League semi-finals and break Paris Saint-Germain's dominance of French football.

Manchester rivals City and United and Spanish champions-elect Real Madrid have been strongly linked with close-season moves for Mbappe that could see sums tipping nine figures.
