UCL: Thierry Henry names PSG’s greatest ever player

Published:

Former Arsenal captain, Thierry Henry, has said Kylian Mbappe is Paris Saint-Germain’s greatest ever player.

Mbappe failed to be his usual influential self as PSG were eliminated by Borussia Dortmund in the semi-final on Tuesday night.

The Ligue 1 champions lost 2-0 on aggregate, scoring no goals in the tie.

Mbappe looks set to have played his final game in the competition for his hometown club, as he is likely to join Real Madrid this summer.

But Henry said on CBS Sports: “Kylian Mbappe, we all know he is leaving. He was magnificent for PSG.

“You [Mbappe] can leave this club with your head held really high.

“It’s not everyone that can win everywhere, especially the Champions League. But the big man played really well all his career for PSG so I am not going to judge him personally on not winning the Champions League.”

When asked if he considers Mbappe to be PSG’s greatest ever player, Henry added: “It’s not even a discussion. The impact he had all over the world, what he has been doing; for me, yes. He will go down as the best player for PSG.”
