Kylian Mbappe had another extraordinary season in the 2023-2024 Ligue 1 with PSG. However, the French star couldnāt give the club a Champions League and now is ready for a massive challenge playing for Real Madrid.
Furthermore, Mbappe has the Ballon dāOr in sight and, if he wants to achieve that, the UEFA Euro 2024 will be a key factor to determine who wins the prestigious award. France are favorites to hoist the trophy in Germany.
Itās going to be a tremendous race with other names involved such as Erling Haaland, Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Jr. Of course, we cannot forget that Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi could be in the mix.
The big problem is that, during the first game of the Euro against Austria, Kylian broke his nose jeopardizing his status for the rest of the tournament.
