Earlier this year, the PSG striker revealed that he nearly opted to join Arsenal in 2017, before opting to stay in France after he left AS Monaco. However it was not to be.
Instead, Mbappé joined French giants PSG, and has gone on to be one of the top talents in the game; scoring 24 goals and recording 12 assists in 36 Ligue 1 appearances last season.
The forward has also scored 6 Champions League goals for the 'Parisians' , as well as helping his nation France to win the World Cup in the summer, with four goals.
