Jakob Batič suggests that a second victory could establish Kylian Mbappe as the best footballer in the history of world championships. However, Batič currently regards Pelé as the undisputed “king of the world stage,” noting that Pelé remains the only player to have achieved three such accolades. Despite the historical comparison, the 27-year-old Frenchman has the potential to solidify his status among the greatest national players in history through several upcoming competitions.
During a recent POPkast discussion, the conversation also highlighted the skill of Mbappe’s teammate, Michael Oliveira, alongside the overall consistency and enthusiasm displayed by the French national team. The discussion focused on the ongoing elimination matches of the World Championship. While Mbappe’s performances are continually analyzed, Batič’s perspective emphasizes the established legacy of Pelé.
Nevertheless, the modern trajectory of the sport means that Mbappe has multiple opportunities to build upon his achievements. The continued focus on the World Championship and the development of French talent suggests that Mbappe remains a central figure in discussions regarding the best players in the world.
