One month after scoring a World Cup final hat-trick but also inexplicably losing said final, Kylian Mbappé is starting to get back to his former self. The French World Cup winner played 35 minutes in his PSG return, a 1-0 defeat to Rennes.

Mbappé has 13 goals in 17 games this season for PSG in Ligue 1 as the French giants are comfortable first place leaders. Mbappé and company are focused on finally winning the UEFA Champions League as that is the main objective for the club. PSG kick off their round of 16 series against Bayern Munich on February 14th.

On Monday a video of Kylian Mbappé leaving a PSG training session went viral as the forward was laughing holding a man of the match trophy from the 2022 World Cup when he made a strange gesture imitating Emiliano Martinez.
