Mbappe praises Conte but as he is asked about plea to join from Spider-Man

It was probably a bit of a long shot anyway with the 23-year-old striker one of the most coveted talents in world football.

He is already a World Cup winner with France and has power over his future with his Paris Saint-Germain contract running out in the summer.

The top clubs in Europe will be clamouring to sign him, and Spider-Man actor, and huge Spurs fan, Tom Holland seized the opportunity.

Holland revealed: "We met Mbappe.

"I said 'Hey, nice to meet you.'

"He was really friendly, so I said, 'Mate, you have to come to Tottenham,' and he just burst out laughing!"

And now the striker has spoken about that interaction, but sadly revealed a move was not on the cards.

Mbappe told CNN: "I don't think I will play for Tottenham in my life.

"[Holland] asked me about it, but no, no. It's a great club. And I'm sure they will make something good this season with Conte. He's a great manager."

Mbappe has scored an incredible 126 goals in 151 games at PSG since his blockbuster move from Monaco in 2017.

He has won 10 trophies, and finished runner-up in the Champions League, but has so far refused to extend his contract.

Real Madrid pursued the striker in the summer, but PSG turned down two huge bids and now face losing him on a free transfer.
