Kylian Mbappé today is the international figure of the moment. The crack breaks it in PSG and the French National Team and is in orbit as one of the signings of Real Madrid. However, the attacker could have played for a European giant that made the controversial decision not to sign him and today he fully regrets it.

As detailed by Relay, Kylian Mbappé was tested at just 11 years old in the Chelsea youth academy but the London team told the family of the incipient star that they wanted to continue watching him to see if they finally signed him. Kylian Mbappé's surroundings were blunt and he confirmed that if they didn't sign him now in the future they would regret it because he would cost 50 million euros.

The story that came after is already known by all and Kylian Mbappé widely broke that value that his family had predicted. With a superlative present, for PSG today it comes out 200 million euros. In Chelsea, of course, they cannot believe the jewel they let escape and which they could have had for free.

The case of Lionel Messi

Lionel Messi also had a very particular case in his childhood and similar to that of Kylian Mbappé. The Argentine striker was tested in the humble Como in Italy but they did not sign him. Some time later, when the world champion exploded at FC Barcelona, the Italian team decided to throw out the person who rejected him in the test.
