REAL MADRID star Antonio Rudiger has vowed to “smash” Kylian Mbappe if he comes up against him in the Champions League final.
The defender is preparing to take on Bayern Munich for a spot at the massive Wembley showpiece on June 1.
Mbappe seems destined to move to the Bernabeu in the summer when his contract expires.
But first he has the chance to finally win PSG the Champions League, with his side taking on Borussia Dortmund in the other semi-final.
But, if their sides do progress to the final, Rudiger is confident Real Madrid will be the victors in the final.
He sent a warning to Mbappe, saying: “If we face him in the final we’ll beat him.

“And if he dribbles past me I’ll smash him.”
Rudiger, 31, kept Erling Haaland quiet in both legs as Real knocked Manchester City out of the quarter-finals on penalties.
And he is not afraid to dish out some harsh treatment to Mbappe.
That’s despite the fact the French superstar could make a move to the Bernabeu this summer.

Rudiger shared his thoughts on the proposed switch, saying: “The best players in history have always come to Real Madrid.
