Mbappe to help Neymar win the Balloon D'or
Kylian Mbappe wants to help Neymar clinch the Ballon d'Or, following his season long loan move to Paris Saint-Germain.
Neymar arrived at Parc des Princes from Barcelona for a world-record fee while Mbappe, still only 18, has joined on a season-long loan from Ligue 1 champions Monaco - a deal that will be made permanent next year for €180m.
When asked if winning the Ballon d'Or was in his thoughts, Mbappe declined saying he was hoping to assist his new team-mate in winning the award, after nine years of dominance enjoyed by Neymar's former fellow La Liga colossus Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
"No. I already have a team-mate who can win it. So, individually, my goal is to score a lot of goals and help Neymar," Mbappe told Le Parisien.
"He can help us raise a lot of trophies, so we have to take care of him.
"I will do everything to help him win this Ballon d'Or. It would make me happy, if I could help him like that."
