Neymar praises Kylian Mbappe following Paris Saint-Germain Champions League win

Neymar has praised his Paris Saint-Germain teammate Kylian Mbappe and has claimed that the French wonderkid can only get better. The summer signings were vital in PSG's 5-0 win over Celtic in the Champions League on Tuesday night, with both players scoring on the night as the Ligue 1 giants got off to a perfect start in their European journey. The Brazilian winger, who assisted Mbappe's goal on the night, has praised the former AS Monaco striker and backed him to improve further.

Speaking to UEFA, Neymar said: "It's always a pleasure to play with great players, even though he's young. For me, he's a great player and he has the potential to improve even more." Neymar arrived at the club for a world-record fee of £200m, while Mbappe joined the Parisian club on loan from Monaco in a deal that will see the 18-year-old move permanently to the French capital for a reported fee of £166m. PSG are one of the favourites to lift the Champions League trophy this season, and will face off against Bayern Munich next in the group stages.
