Barcelona fullback Alves declares Mbappe far superior to Haaland

Barcelona fullback Dani Alves admits he rates PSG star Kylian Mbappe ahead of Borussia Dortmund's Erling Haaland.

The Brazilian made a powerful statement about the two most in-demand players, Mbappe and Haaland.

"I wouldn't go all out for Haaland. Honestly, I wouldn't spend a lot of money on him," Alves said in interviews he gave to Sport and Mundo Deportivo.

"On Mbappe yes, but not on Haaland. I'm playing sporting director, eh, but I'd go for Mbappe first, I think he's more complete in every aspect.

"If you're going to make a huge investment, you have to make it in the best. If it was up to me, I'd go for Mbappe. He's the best there is, and for Barcelona's style, at the moment, in football, there is no-one better than him."
