Former PSG Striker Highlights The Main Similarity Osimhen Shares With Mbappe

Former Paris Saint-Germain and Lille attacker Pierre-Alain Frau has highlighted the major similarity Nigeria international Victor Osimhen shares with France World Cup winner Kylian Mbappé.

Born nine days apart, the two 21-year-olds faced off for the first time in their respective careers on Sunday night as Lille were beaten 2-0 by PSG in a Ligue 1 match at Stade Pierre-Mauroy, with Brazil superstar Neymar grabbing a brace for the visitors.

"You tell me about two immense talents, Both of them are already young and we have come to see them for a long time, for our happiness," Frau said to La Voix Du Nord.

"I enjoy watching them. Their big point in common is speed. They are both very fast and make a lot of difference with their calls and their races.

"When they are gone, we no longer catch up with them".

This season, Osimhen has tallied 18 goals in 32 appearances for club and country, while Mbappe has 21 strikes in 25 matches for PSG and France.
