Former Real Madrid forward Jese Rodriguez has drawn striking parallels between Kylian Mbappe and Cristiano Ronaldo, particularly in their training intensity and goal-scoring determination.

Speaking to ElDesmarque, the Spaniard highlighted the similarities he noticed while training alongside both superstars. Jese described Mbappe’s relentless work ethic and passion for scoring goals, even during practice, as reminiscent of Ronaldo’s legendary commitment to improvement.

“There wasn’t that much difference to the feeling I had when I was training with Cristiano [Ronaldo],” Jese remarked. “They were both the same; they scored goals in every training session. They both have their different talents, but you could already see that Mbappe was going to be a star.”

Jese emphasized that while Mbappe and Ronaldo possess distinct styles of play, their shared dedication to excellence sets them apart. He further noted that Mbappe’s ability to shine on the grandest stages was evident early in his career.

What Do You Think? Is Mbappe the New Ronaldo?

Jese’s comments invite an exciting debate among football fans. While Mbappe’s talent and training ethic are undeniable, does he truly compare to Ronaldo’s iconic legacy?

• Can Mbappe match Ronaldo’s longevity and consistent dominance across leagues?

• Or is Mbappe carving out his own unique path that could redefine greatness in football?

Mbappe’s drive and focus are reminiscent of Ronaldo, but his style and impact are distinctly his own. What do you think: Is Mbappe a successor to Ronaldo’s throne, or does his potential lie in breaking new ground altogether?
