He is predictable – Chilavert names leagues where Mbappe will struggle

Former Paraguayan goalkeeper, Jose Luis Chilavert has said that highly-sought-after forward, Kylian Mbappe is predictable.

According to him, the Paris Saint-Germain superstar will struggle in South American football.

Chilavert is also of the opinion that the Frenchman would not even be able to use speed to his advantage in the high altitudes of South America.

Chilavert told Fútbol de los Grandes, “I would like to see him running at altitude in La Paz or Quito, or playing away in Brazil.

“Here he would be an average player, he’s predictable. Obviously he has an advantage with his speed, but with a defender blowing his neck we can control him calmly.”

The 23-year-old 2018 World Cup star has so far scored 212 goals and has provided 98 assists in 260 matches for Paris Saint-Germain.

He scored 41 goals and provided 10 assists in 43 matches for the French club in the 2022-23 season.
