He won the Ballon d’Or a few days ago,” he further explained. Earlier during an interview with Marca, Mbappe had said that he has a tough time picking between CR7 and Lionel Messi. Ultimately, the PSG star picked CR7 and over Lionel Messi and said that the current Manchester United striker was his childhood hero. In fact, during one of the matches, Ronaldo and Mbappe share a conversation with each other on the field and the pictures and video made rounds on social media.
