Legendary Real Madrid midfielder Guti has insisted that there is a teenage player who is even better than Mbappe and Haaland.
In a latest move, legendary Real Madrid midfielder Guti has affirmed that Vinicius Jr is the best player in the world at the moment, not Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland . The former Los Blancos midfielder was full of praise for the Brazilian winger for his ability to beat defenders.
In addition, Guti also thinks that Vinicius can completely become a “god of football” if he can improve his passing and finishing abilities. Sharing with El Chiringuito, the 46-year-old legend said: “Vinicius’ current form is unbelievable. It’s crazy that he causes fear in defenders and dribbling this way or that. How easy it is. When Vini gets a little more consistent with his last pass or finish, he becomes a god of football.”
Guti was then asked if Vinicius was better than PSG’s Kylian Mbappe at the moment. The Real legend replied: “Of course, right now Vinicius is the number one in the world. I have watched PSG and their matches in the league and Champions League. It is true that Mbappe is very good, but what Vinicius is doing. It’s unusual to do this now.”
Vinicius recently starred for Los Blancos’ midweek win over Chelsea in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals . He assisted Marcos Asensio to score to give the White Vultures a 2-0 advantage to enter the second leg with a relaxed mentality at Stamford Bridge.
Mbappe and Haaland are both enjoying a prolific season with leading roles in the attack of PSG and Man City, the duo has scored 76 goals in all competitions.
While Vinicius has scored 21 goals and provided 16 assists in 45 appearances this season, although he is a winger and is not a target to “pick up the ball” like Mbappe and Haaland.
