Kylian Mbappe says £52m Arsenal target was ‘killing’ France at Euro 2024
Kylian Mbappe appears to have been impressed by one Arsenal target after watching him play at Euro 2024.
The Frenchman had to sit on the bench in the game between France and the Netherlands on Friday night due tꦰo a broken nose.
Mbappe was available for selection and he even had his mas🌳k ready. However, Didier Deschamps didn’t think it was worth the risk, and we agree with him.
The France superstar got to watch the whole game from the bench as his side were held to a 0-0 draw by Ronald Koeman‘s Netherlands side.
A video has now emerged where Mb🐭appe can be seen delivering his verdict on one Dutch player who Arsenal are said to be intersted in.
Kylian Mbappe says he thought Xavi Simons was ‘killing’ France
Xavi Simons is one of the most talented young players at Euro 2024.
The Dutchman, who is on PSG’s books but spent the 2023/ꦐ24 season at RB Leipzig on lo🍸an, has become a regular starter for the Netherlands.
Simons💜 started on the right-wing in his side’s opening game against Aust🌼ria, but he was given a more central role on Friday night when Holland faced France.
It was a much b🦹etter perfo♕rmance from the PSG man, who was busy and worked incredibly hard throughout the game.
Simons also found the back of the net in the second half and it would’ve been the winner. However, a VAR review showed that Denzel Dumfries, who was in an offside 𒁏position, obst🅷ructed the goalkeeper.
That goal was ruled out and Mbappe, who 💮was watching from the bench, breathed a huge sigh of relief.
The Frenchman, however, seems to have been impr💃essed with Simons.
Before heading into their respective dressing rooms, Mbappe caught up with his old pal Georginio Wijnaldum for a chat. 🎐During their conversation, he spotted Si🍌mons walking towards them.
In a video posted by Dutch outlet NOS Sports, Mbappe can be seen pointing at the Dutchman and saying: “Hey, I was thinking he was kill📖ing us!”
The Frenchman then gave Simons a ꦏhug and had a quick chat with him before heading back♐ in.
Arsenal have made contact to sign Simons
Arsenal are on 🍃the market for a versatile attacker and Simons checks a lot of boxes.
The Dutchman can play on wither wing and also in attacking midfield. He is a really exciting talent, and there is a chance he will be available for a transfer th꧃is summer.
have claimed that Arsenal hℱave made contact toಞ sign Simons, who is valued at £52 million.
The 21-year-ol🐈d scored 10 goals and provided 15 assists in the Bundesliga in the 2023/24 season, and everyone believes he has a huge future ahead of him.
It will be interesting to what will happen with Simons, but we think h🍌e would be a great signing for Arsenal this s🍰ummer.
