Kylian Mbappé is the son of a Paris Saint-Germain fan and the grandson of a former France international. The 19-year-old has been tipped to succeed Hugo Lloris as captain of the France national team.
He has been likened to LeBron James, who is an avowed model for American sportsman's mentality. The PSG star is expected to lead his country to glory at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. He will be judged on his performance, not his age, says a close friend.
