Mbappe Names Manchester City as Bayern's Biggest Threat

Kylian Mbappe, the forward for Real Madrid, has named Manchester City as the only team capable of defeating Bayern Munich ahead of their highly anticipated UEFA Champions League clash next month. During a segment on the Telefoot program on TF1, Mbappe expressed his current focus on the 2026 FIFA World Cup in North America, while also reflecting on his impressive performance this season, where he has scored nearly 40 goals across competitions, including 13 goals in nine Champions League matches.
