Monaco fullback Fabinho admits 'more and more clubs' watching Mbappe

AS Monaco fullback Fabinho hopes teammate Kylian Mbappe can stay grounded.

The teenage striker has had a €60 million price-tag slapped on him amid interest from Real Madrid and Manchester City.

Fabinho is a big fan and hailed his performance for victory over Guingamp.

The fullback told L'Equipe: "He used his speed to score (Mbappé earned the penalty for the win). It's never easy to get into the game, when there is such intensity.

"He's had a good season. And he will be more and more observed. When the clubs look at you, it can be difficult."
