At this time, with the consideration of PSG coach Luis Enrique, Ethan Mbappe was able to gain a special experience of traveling on the field with his older brother Kylian. Ethan Mbappe has not played many games in five games this season, but he is still a promising player because he was born in 2006.
Ethan Mbappe is a different type of player than Kylian Mbappe. My brother is one of the best strikers in the world, but Ethan Mbappe plays in the midfield. He is a creative playmaker who has good technology and can put a pass well. Although it is evaluated that he is not as promising as Kylian Mbappe, Ethan Mbappe is expected to be able to play in the first team.
However, PSG did not hand Ethan Mbappe an extension. He even has the star quality of being a castle youth and Kylian's brother, but he decided to release Ethan Mbappe. At this time, Lille showed interest in recruiting Ethan Mbappe.

There were also predictions that Ethan Mbappe would follow his brother to Real Madrid, but that was not true. Romano said "Ethan Mbappe has never spoken to Real. He always focused on finding a solution in Ligue 1 in France.
Ethan is expected to join French powerhouse Lille and fulfill his dream of becoming a professional player in earnest. If Ethan grows well and grows into a French national team player, he can also imagine playing in a French uniform with Kylian Mbappe.
