Real Madrid skipper Luka Modric has lauded the blistering run of form Kylian Mbappe is on this year, insisting the French man is ‘so easy’ to share the pitch with.
This term, Mbappe has already gone beyond the 30 goal mark for Los Blancos, netting 20 times in La Liga with about nine matches to end the 2024/25 Spanish league season.

Modric who was previously a rival of the 26-year-old now shares the dressing room with Mbappe, and says Kylian’s run of form and personality is one he probably hasn’t seen from any footballer in his career.
Speaking ahead of Croatia’s second-leg clash against France in the UEFA Nations League quarter final, Modric said: “Mbappe makes things easy, maybe I’ve never seen this before!”, he told Telefoot.
“What surprised me the most is the person he is. He is an incredible guy, very humble and always joking with us, very calm. They said it is not his best season and he already has 30 goals”, Modric added.
