Ethan Mbappe Shines in PSG Debut with Bro Kylian Mbappe
Paris Saint-Germain concluded Wednesday's match against Metz with both Mbappés sharing the field.
On his 25th birthday, Kylian Mbappe netted twice, propelling PSG to a 3-1 victory in their last match of 2023. The French captain's younger brother, midfielder Ethan Mbappe, entered the pitch in the 91st minute, replacing Lee Kang-In during added time in the second half.
The 16-year-old, set to celebrate his 17th birthday on December 29, managed to touch the ball nine times before the game concluded. Successfully executing all nine passes he attempted, the Mbappe brothers were spotted sharing broad smiles and embracing each other after the match.
Ethan initiated his journey in youth football at AS Bondy and later secured a move to PSG in 2017, coincidentally the same year his older brother Kylian joined from Monaco.
As of now, both Mbappe siblings are committed to PSG under contracts that extend until June 2024.
Notably, Kylian holds the distinction of being PSG's all-time leading scorer, boasting an impressive record of 233 goals in 282 games. His prolific contributions on the field have played a pivotal role in establishing him as a key figure in the club's history.
The Mbappe brothers' parallel journeys at PSG symbolize a shared commitment to the club's legacy. Ethan's emergence from the AS Bondy youth ranks to don the PSG jersey aligns with the remarkable trajectory of Kylian, who, since his arrival in 2017, has become PSG's prolific goal-scoring maestro. As both siblings continue to make their mark on the field, their synchronized connection and undeniable talent contribute to the exciting narrative of family and football intertwining. Fans eagerly anticipate witnessing the ongoing chapters of the Mbappe saga, united in the pursuit of success with Paris Saint-Germain.
