Can't see it, he is too good and ambitious for the French League.

Madrid or the Rags and a possible outsider in Bayern although unlikely.
Thats what everyone said about Neymar and probably Messi now. Thing is everyone wants a shot at the CL and PSG is one of the 3-4 clubs (Us, Bayern, Chelsea/Pool at a stretch) that give a shot at it regularly. I don't think Madrid can afford both Mbappe and Haaland with their financial situation. Bayern I can definitely see happening.

To be fair, Neymar going there was lunacy for a player of his talent and at the peak of his powers.

Messi has a choice of one, PSG, the only club that could afford and want him.

Mbappe and PSG is a stepping stone for him.

PSG are becoming the Harlem Globe Trotters of football.

I can tell you that here in Brazil a lot of pundits thought his move to PSG was a good idea since his main goal is winning the Ballon D’Or, and he never would have been a protagonist at Barcelona while Messi stayed there. Funny enough, at PSG he hasn’t quite been the main protagonist either, especially after France won the World Cup. And now he has Messi. His final chance is winning the Catar World Cup as the protagonist for Brazil and he knows it, but having a good season at PSG and winning the UCL will be of help too

A waste of what should have been a great career, I think when older and he looks back, he will have a lot of regrets.

I think his career has been great already. He won titles with a club with a lot of history in Brazil (Pele’s club!), was part of an iconic trio at Barcelona with Messi and Suarez, won the Champions League there and will very possibly win another at PSG. He’s an Olympics gold medalist like Messi. Has won the Copa America. And in Catar will have a decent chance at the World Cup and possibly the World Cup after that (though no longer as the protagonist, I would think). Besides all this, made so much money that he will never be able to spend and become a global superstar. It’s quite a life.

I used the wrong words, he has had a great career without doubt.

But don't you think considering his talent he now should be talked about as better than Messi and Ronaldo but has he even reached their level?

I think the problem is being a player in the same generation as those two and not having started the career in Europe like them, or at least not leaving Brazil sooner. He waited a bit longer so he could achieve things with Santos here. It’s something Messi doesn’t have in Argentina. His frustration is not having won the Ballon D’Or yet. But again, he probably would already have if it weren’t for those two.
 
Haaland is not the next Messi or Neymar, he is the next Benzema. Nobody can deny he has talent but people talking about him as the world's best player in the future are, imo, off the mark.

How about the next Cristiano Ronaldo? Or Lewandowski?

The issue he’s always going to find, like Lewa, is belonging to a shit national team that will never win anything
