It’s like a dream! Mbappe: I never dared to be teammates with Messi!

"I never thought about playing with Messi in my life."

When Mbappé said these words in the French national team training camp, he unveiled a wonderful intertwining of football destiny. A French genius who dreamed of playing for Real Madrid since childhood actually became teammates with Barcelona legend Messi in Paris.

After this interview was released, it quickly detonated the entire Internet. The century-old feud between Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​and the brief intersection between Messi and Mbappe were all presented to everyone at this moment.

1. The collision between "White Dream" and "Red and Blue Enemies"

Mbappe's childhood bedroom was covered with posters of Real Madrid. Cristiano Ronaldo, Zidane, Raul...these names created his obsession with the "Legion Blancos".

He said frankly in the interview: "I know that Messi's relationship with Barcelona means that he will never join Real Madrid, so it should be impossible for me to play side by side with him."

This sentence tells a "parallel time and space" rule in football: Real Madrid and Barcelona stars are born with two parallel lines.

However, the script of fate will be completely rewritten in 2021. When Messi left the Nou Camp in tears, Paris Saint-Germain used a contract to bring the two stars who were "supposed to be opposites" together.

Neymar's strings, the ambitions of the Qatari consortium, and the rapid changes in the football world have jointly broken this boundary.

2. Paris Years

At the Parc des Princes, Mbappe, Messi and Neymar formed the "MNM" trident worth 300 million euros.

During the two years that Messi and Mbappe worked together, Paris won two consecutive French Ligue 1 championships, but the failure in the Champions League made this cooperation full of controversy.

Despite the tacit understanding on the field, French media once revealed that Mbappe complained about Messi's "lack of defense", and Messi also had reservations about Mbappe's "core status".

In 2023, Messi moved to the American League, and Mbappe finally put on the Real Madrid jersey. The two returned to the "opposing" camp again.

3. From opponent to teammate, then to opponent

Now, Mbappe has officially made his debut at the Bernabeu, while Messi continues his legend at Inter Miami.

When asked "What would happen if Messi played for Real Madrid?", Mbappe laughed: "Then I will win the championship earlier!"

Behind this joke, there is an absolute recognition of Messi's strength. Perhaps as the fans said: "They met briefly in Paris, but their souls always belong to Madrid and Barcelona."

Mbappe's interview once again proved: some dreams are rooted in childhood, and some loyalty is engraved in blood.

And the unexpected intersection in Paris will eventually become an intriguing footnote in the two people's glorious careers.

"I was lucky to have walked with him, but I never forgot where I was going." - This may be Mbappe's most authentic monologue.
