It was already a habit and we will undoubtedly have to get used to it continuing without slowing down in the coming years: Kylian Mbappé was on the front page of the Spanish press this Wednesday morning.
The number 7 of PSG, whose double enhanced the collective performance of Paris Saint-Germain and eliminated Real Sociedad this Tuesday evening, in the round of 16 second leg of the Champions League (1-2), made a lot of effect beyond the Pyrenees.
“Mbappé is unstoppable”, sends Marca for example.
“He scores a double against Real and brings his number of goals in five matches in Spain to seven,” writes the Madrid newspaper, which is undoubtedly eager to see more.
“Mbappé broke the deadlock with a colossal first half,” they write on their site.
Proving that it's certainly worth what it costs and costs what it's worth.

The other major Spanish daily based in Madrid, As, also made its front page on the PSG player, and was content with just one word: “Demoledor”, the demolition man.
“Real's journey in the Champions League stopped because a monster came to see them,” develops the Iberian media.
They were crushed by a steamroller with Mbappé at the controls.
An unstoppable buffalo on the loose.

Madrid “rubs its hands”
“Real Madrid is rubbing its hands,” continues As, no doubt soon to be able to count in its ranks a player who has already scored “40 goals in March”.
And Spanish journalists are rubbing their hands about a possible PSG-Real Madrid in the quarter-finals.
“Because if that happens, it would be an absolutely historic match,” assures As.
✨ ¡Buenas noches!
Now this is the #PortadAS of hoy, miércoles 6 de marzo

On the Catalan side, less space on the front page for Kylian Mbappé.
Mundo Deportivo mainly devotes it to the Girona player Aleix Garcia and the new images of the future Camp Nou, but still has a word for the number 7 on his banner: “Mucho Mbappé”.
“Mbappé leaves no choice,” headlines the editorial by the newspaper’s sports director Santi Nolla.
“PSG has grown collectively,” he writes.
And Luis Enrique has the spark of a very inspired striker who benefits from the support work of the rest of his teammates.

Same importance given to Mbappé on the front page of Sport, the Catalan sports daily which makes its headlines on Barça's desire to extend the kings of its young talents but still recognizes that "Mbappé dazzled Real", at the bottom of his first page.
“Mbappé destroys Real”, they headline on their website.
On the first goal: “The native of Bondy faced Zubeldia and Traoré and left them both completely broken with a double feint,” they report.
Usual superlatives that will have to be recycled for the next few years.
