After Xabi Alonso, it's now Thibaut Courtois who can't hide his excitement about Kylian Mbappé at Real Madrid. This comes after the Frenchman's brace last night against Bilbao.

On Wednesday night, Kylian Mbappé was simply dazzling against Athletic Bilbao. The Real Madrid striker made all the difference, scoring twice and providing an assist. Thibaut Courtois feels fortunate to be able to enjoy the French international's talent.

"He is unstoppable. At one point during the match, I thought to myself: 'How lucky am I to have him on my team and not have to face him.' Well, except when playing against France. Mbappé is performing on another level, and we benefit so much from his play and contributions. I hope he keeps this up," the Belgian told Real Madrid TV.
