Ethan Mbappé finally found the way to the field. Victim of a severe injury to the hamstrings at the end of last April with Lille, the former Parisian was operated on in the process and had to give up at the end of last season. The 18-year-old midfielder also missed the start of this exercise 2025-2026.
Kylian Mbappé's little brother made his return to competition on September 14 only, on the occasion of the 4th day of Ligue 1.. He even signed a shattering return by offering the LOSC victory against Toulouse, at the very end of the match (2-1), a few minutes after his entry into play.
Now rid of his physical seeds, Ethan Mbappé learned bad news just before resuming the competition. Indeed, Bruno Genesio and his staff decided not to register him on the list of Lille players selected to compete in the first phase of the Europa League. A decision that was not very well received by the number 8 of the DOGUES.
Ethan Mbappé excluded in the Europa League, “the club probably regrets a little”
“A blow for the player that the club probably regrets a little. As the list was given, Ethan was just coming back. But given his qualities, he would have been useful in the rotation “Said a relative of the Dogues with the
Parisian.
However, the native of Montreuil is unanimous in the northern training, whether by his personality or his qualities as a footballer. “” Very quickly, he was considered by everyone to be simply Ethan and not as Mbappé “Explains the same source, and adding:” He is a boy who counts in the workforce, thus lets go of a member of the locker room. He has natural striking, power, speed qualities … he matured, it's a good! Even if he is nice, he imposes! It can end up making a place. »»
This Sunday evening (8:45 pm), Ethan Mbappé will surely be keen to shine against his old club, Paris Saint-Germain, which moves to Lille at the end of the 7th day of Ligue 1. It remains to be seen whether it will be on the lawn of Pierre-Mauroy at the start or if he will start on the bench. The second option seems most likely.
