What if Ethan Mbappé really launched his career? The midfielder trained in PSG, who arrived in LOSC last summer, did not say his last word among the Dogues. Kylian's little brother experienced a slightly nightmare's first part of the season, with an adducting injury at the end of August and above all a quadriceps just before the arrival of Real Madrid on October 2 in the League Champions. Operated, the International U19 Tricolor missed two and a half months of competition before returning a week ago.
After two small entries against Strasbourg (2-1 defeat) and Feyernoord in LDC (victory 6-1), the Bondynois this time entered the 64th minute of the northern training meeting against Saint-Etienne, Saturday Evening in Pierre-Mauroy, in place of Rémy Cabella. Proof of the confidence that Bruno Genesio gives him. The Lille were already led 2-0 but Ethan Mbappé clearly contributed to the end of the match of the locals. If he did not score, the left -handed midfielder brought danger by hitting three times.
Ethan Mbappé soon holder and scorer?
Versatile, Ethan Mbappé has a good opportunity to help LOSC continue its good season. And why not score your first goal in the elite. Lille continues with her round of 16 against Dunkirk next Tuesday (7 p.m.), then the 5th in Ligue 1 (two points from OM, the 2nd, for the moment) receives Le Havre on Saturday. By finishing in the Top 8, the Northerners are exempt from dams of the final phase of the LDC and are therefore waiting to know if they will face the winner of Sporting-Borussia Dortmund or that of Club Bruges-Atalanta.
In 4-2-3-1 of the Lille coach, the 18-year-old leaves a length behind to occupy one of the two places of the double pivot, with Benjamin André, Ngalayel Mukau, André Gomes and even Ayyoub Bouaddi more reliable. But Mbappé now acts as a lining of offensive Rémy Cabella, Angel Gomes, Hakon Haraldsson, Osame Sahraoui and Mitchel Bakker. The absence of Edon Zhegrova for almost two months is quite disabling. On the other hand, the CHUBA AKPOM recruit offers a new alternative to Genesio, the English center forward being able to play in the place of Jonathan David or to accompany him.
