Mbappe Lauds Griezmann As France’s Leader

France youngster, Kylian Mbappe has hailed Antoine Griezmann as the boss and leader of the Les Bleus.

The Atletico attacker was the standout star for France at the Euro 2016, scoring six goals as France finished runners up.

And with the world cup poised to start, Mbappe believes he can lead the team.

“I think that he is the boss since the Euro already,” he said Wednesday.

“When you end the European Championship the best goal-scorer in your own country, you show the world that you have the shoulders to handle the pressure.

“It’s true that he went through a bad patch following the competition but he showed how [much of] an amazing player he was and he is by scoring goal after goal.

“He will be pivotal for us if we want to get results.”
