Kylian Mbappe of Real Madrid has praised William Saliba of Arsenal as one of the best centre backs in the Premier League.

Saliba has developed into a vital player for Arsenal, and Mbappe thinks he might start for France at Euro 2024.

Saliba’s inclusion in France’s Euro squad was guaranteed by his exceptional performances over two seasons in a row with the Gunners.

Despite his accomplishments, he is now ranked lower in Didier Deschamps’ selection hierarchy than Ibrahima Konate of Liverpool and Dayot Upamecano of Bayern Munich.

Mbappe said to Ouest-France, “I have known him since he was very, very young.”

“We attended the same Bondy primary school. Despite not being in the same year, we played football together during our breaks, and he begged to play.

“He is one of the best centre backs in the Premier League and has grown to be a very important player for Arsenal this season.”
