A Real Madrid star claims that Kylian Mbappe has already 'shut up' the critics in his short time with the Spanish giants.
The Frenchman has bagged seven goals across all competitions for the reigning UEFA Champions League holders, with five of those strikes coming in LALIGA.

Mbappe is yet to seriously click with Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo so far this season, but Los Blancos midfielder Federico Valverde is happy to have the World Cup winner on his side from now on.
"We all know the class of player [Mbappé] is, he's one of the best in the world," Valverde told France Football.
"Having him here today is a huge satisfaction, it's a joy to share a pitch with him.
"I've had to suffer [playing against him] with PSG, and playing against France with my country [Uruguay]. He stands out in every game, in every training session. He's a top player. Thank God he's here with us, I can enjoy it, my family too, and my kids can watch him."
"As a person [Mbappé] is incredible," Valverde.
"He's shut a lot of people up, [people said] if he came here there'd be a lot of conflict, I don't know what else.
"He's quietened all that down, all those rumours, and he's shown he's a spectacular person ... [His Spanish] is impressive, better than mine!"
