Monaco vice-president Vadim Vasilyev says the club intend to ward off any interest for Kylian Mbappe.


Kylian Mbappe only made his debut last season and has already been dubbed the new Thierry Henry, has impressed hugely this campaign for Leonardo Jardim’s side.

The highly-rated 18-year-old scored last night as Monaco beat Manchester City in the Champions League.

“Our intention is to keep Kylian Mbappe,” Vasilyev told RTL. “Mbappe is a product of our youth academy. He is our DNA. I am very proud. We have a real team.”

The first half was excellent – the sort of performance that the very top teams make.’


After their impressive comeback against City, Mbappe and his Monaco team-mates will find out who they draw in the Champions League last-eight on Friday at 11am.
