Draxler Warns Germany of Kylian Mbappe's Speed Rate
Paris Saint-Germain team-mate Julian Draxler warns Kylian Mbappe boasts "300 hp" and is almost impossible to stop if he is given space to run.
Germany will on Tuesday in Paris take on world champions France in the Nations League, with the hopes to bounce back from last weekend's 3-0 defeat to Netherlands in Amsterdam.
However, Draxler has admitted Germany will need to be at their collective best to stop the explosive 19-year-old from running riot against their defence.
"If he has space to get started, it's almost impossible to catch him with his 300 hp," Draxler told T-online.
"His speed and his finishing [are his biggest weapons]. We must not allow him to use either, by defending very compact."
Mbappe has enjoyed a strong start to the domestic season, too, with eight goals in just four starts in Ligue 1.
