Real Madrid left-back Fran Garcia has spoken about the success of his teammate Kylian Mbappe.
The French striker’s brace secured a 2:1 win for the Whites over Villarreal in Saturday’s La Liga clash.
The 26-year-old now has 31 goals in 44 matches under Carlo Ancelotti.
"After Mbappe joined Real Madrid, there was a lot of talk, but he’s an incredible player and he’s proven it. I knew he’d bring huge value to the team. It’s amazing how well he’s settled," Garcia said in an interview.
