#3 Dani Alves
Dani Alves hasn't played too many games with Kylian Mbappe, but ranks high in terms of the most iconic stars the Frenchman has shared a dressing room with.
Widely considered among the greatest right-backs of all time, Alves has delivered for every club he has played for, lifting numerous trophies along the way.
In fact, the 38-year-old the most decorated player in the history of football. Alves has won 43 trophies in his glorious career, most of them coming with Barcelona, where Alves became a star.
The Brazilian continues to go strong, even transitioning into a midfielder at Santos after joining them in 2019. He is leading the charge for the Seleccao at the ongoing Tokyo Olympics.
#2 Angel Di Maria
Kylian Mbappe, at 22, has already played with many established creators of the game. But the most underrated of them all is Angel Di Maria.
The Argentine wizard, who has played with Mbappe for four seasons at PSG, has been a prolific assist-maker throughout his career. With 235 assists in his club career, Di Maria is among the leading active players with most assists, and he scores beautiful goals too.
Most recently, Di Maria lifted his first international trophy with Argentina, scoring the only goal in the 1-0 victory over defending champions Brazil in the Copa America 2021 final.
He may not get enough plaudits for his on-field performances and everything he has accomplished, but the former Real Madrid Galactico is truly a modern-day great.
#1 Neymar
Neymar arrived at PSG for a world-record fee of €222 million in 2017, just days before Mbappe was signed from AS Monaco as the world's most expensive young player.
While their Champions League aspirations haven't been fulfilled yet, the attacking duo has forged a menacing partnership at PSG - arguably the best in Ligue 1 right now.
Kylian Mbappe has combined his youthful exuberance with lightning-quick speed to hit teams on the break, while Neymar is the creative talisman who can slit open defences with beautiful passes.
Together, in 287 games combined, the pair has accumulated 219 goals and laid out 113 assists - remarkable stats by every stretch of imagination.
