Confirmation that the word "vacation" does not exist in Kylian Mbappé's dictionary.
The top scorer of the World Cup, back in training with Paris Saint-Germain, just three days after his hat-trick in the final against Argentina, is already ready to return to service.
The number 7 of the capital club is in the group for the reception of Strasbourg.
At his side, Christophe Galtier can also count on Neymar, also present for the 16th day of Ligue 1.
For this first league match since mid-November, the Parisians will also be able to count on the feedback of these other Mondialists such as Achraf Hakimi, who returned the same day as his friend Kylian Mbappé, or even on Danilo Pereira, injured in the selection, but many back to the group.
Marquinhos, Carlos Soler and Pablo Sarabia also appear for this first match after the World Cup break.
Four players are missing: Presnel Kimpembe, still absent for at least a month, Nuno Mendes affected with Portugal, Renato Sanches who suffered a bruise during the preparation... And a certain Lionel Messi, whose return is expected in early January .

In the rest of the 21 players called up to face the nineteenth in Ligue 1, we find the classic with Donnarumma, Ramos, Verratti, Ruiz… But also Ilyes Housni.
The 17-year-old striker, prominent during the winter break (double scorer against Quevilly Rouen), is making his first appearance in the squad.
With him, we find other young "titis" more accustomed: Warren Zaire-Emery, El Chadaille Bitshiabu and Ismaël Gharbi.
