Paris Saint-Germain v Celtic FC - UEFA Champions League

AS Monaco’s run in the Champions League last season was aided by Mbappe’s stunning goalscoring record in the tournament. The lethal striker who is just 19 years old has continued scoring goals for Paris St. Germain where he moved this summer from Monaco.

The forward has been tipped as a future Ballon d'Or winner by many and rightly so as the young French international netted 26 times last time around and even assisted 14 goals. Not at all bad for a teenager plying his trade in Europe’s best competition.

Mbappe’s pace is his highest asset which has left opposition defenders gasping for breath on far too many occasions now. The French international’s dead-eye finishing ability is one to watch out for as the 19-year-old can unleash a shot from a fair distance. His amazing movement off the ball and his unselfishness combine to make him one of the most desired attackers to have on your team.
