Arsenal and Manchester United target Kylian Mbappe says regular first-team football is pivotal as he prepares to choose his future club.
The 18-year-old is also a target for Liverpool and Manchester City according to reports in Italy.
He was voted Ligue 1's Young Player of the Year after an impressive season with Champions Monaco.
"I will make a choice based on my sporting career, and my career is first and foremost, and I am at an age where I need to play, and that will be paramount," Mbappe told beIN Sports.
"I'm not 35 or 36, an age where I have to manage [my body], I still have everything to learn, this year was discovery, and now comes the most important step: Confirmation.
"And I will be the sole decision-maker, and I will not go anywhere where I will be forced to go.
"In football, everything is possible, from the moment you work and you believe in your qualities.
"I always believed in myself, it wasn't enough to want to, you have to give yourself the means [to succeed]. I didn't know it was going to happen so fast, but I knew I wanted to do it."
