The two-time Ballon d'Or winner is the majority shareholder of LaLiga side Real Valladolid, and has now explained that he would sign Kylian Mbappe if he had the financial means.

With the 1994 and 2002 FIFA World Cup winner often being named in the debate about the greatest footballers of all time, he also discussed his choices for the best players in the history of the game, picking Ronaldo and Messi alongside legends Pele and Diego Maradona.

"For me, in the classification of the best in history, the four names would be Pele, Maradona, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo," he added.

"They are the top four in the history of football."
