Former Arsenal player Mikael Silvestre has said that an EPL transfer for Kylian Mbappe cannot be ruled out in future windows. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
Stressing that the Premier League best fits Mbappe’s playing style, Silvestre urged the Frenchman to find the best club that will deliver the elusive UCL trophy he has yet to win.
Mikael added that Kylian plays just like Henry, and everyone knows how impactful Thierry was in the EPL.
His words, “I think it’s unlikely any time soon. Who knows in football, everything is unpredictable. Never say never, but I find it hard to see at the moment.
I don’t think the style really matters when you have a top player like this. He would fit in any team.
So I think for him it’s all about who’s going to be able to win the trophy that I’m missing. If I was looking at my career, I’m 27 years old, I’ve won everything but the Champions League. I would pick the club who is bringing me the best platform and possibilities to do that.
If he joined the Premier League, I think Arsenal would suit him.
All of the players are kind of the same age, dynamic, young. Arsenal players are fast. If you look at the front line you have [Bukayo] Saka, who is very fast, you have [Eberechi] Eze, who is powerful and fast. You have speed and enjoyment. Arsenal suits him the most in England.
I’m not sure it’s going to happen. I don’t think it is ever going to happen because he might retire in Europe with Real Madrid. He has the same kind of speed as Thierry Henry and we know how impactful Thierry was in the Premier League with his speed and ability. I think he would do well in England.”
