The early end to the French season in April confirmed the formality of a fourth Ligue 1 winners’ medal for Mbappe. His Paris St Germain side’s priority now is to keep the phenomenon in the capital for many years to come.
That is why there is talk of a new £600,000-a-week contract, even in the Covid-19 era.
But whatever route his career path takes, Mbappe wants it to end with a legacy similar to those left, or being left, by his two idols.
“My first idol was Zinedine Zidane for everything he achieved with the national team,” says Mbappe. “And then it was Cristiano Ronaldo.
“Cristiano has won so much and still continues to be a winner even after so much success.
“They have both left their mark in the history of the game and I want to leave my own chapter in the history books.”
