Boga told Goal: "She said to me, 'listen, my boy won't be coming back. If they want him they have to take him now, or in five years time they will be coming back to buy him for €50million (£45m)'."
Boga added: "He was very skilful, but in England they want to see the player track back and be a hard worker.
"At the time, he wasn't a hard worker, defensively he wasn't there yet. When he got the ball, he was unbelievable, but without the ball, he didn't work a lot.
"Chelsea wanted to see him again to see how he could improve on this – I think that's why they asked him back. He did skilful things and dribbled well, so maybe the things they wanted to see in the second trial was improved work on the defensive side."
Mbappe left West London with just a Chelsea shirt he was gifted at the end of his trial
