Ethan Mbappé

Early career

Mbappé followed in both of his older brothers' footsteps by joining local side Bondy in 2015. After two years with Bondy, he joined French club Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in 2017, in the same transfer window that saw the club bring in his brother Kylian on loan. He scored on his debut for the under-12 team.

Paris Saint-Germain

Mbappé signed a new three-year youth contract with PSG in June 2021. On 16 December 2022, at the age of 15, he made his debut with the club's senior team in a 2–1 friendly win over Paris FC. Ahead of the 2023–24 season, he was called up for the pre-season tour in Asia, and made his first start for PSG in a 3–0 friendly win over Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors on 3 August. Mbappé was selected for a PSG competitive match-day squad for the first time on 15 September 2023, remaining as an unused substitute in a 3–2 home defeat to Nice. He made his senior and professional debut with PSG as a substitute in a 3–1 Ligue 1 win over Metz on 20 December 2023. Mbappé announced his departure from PSG on 18 June 2024. His brother Kylian, who also left the club that summer, suggested that he would have stayed if Ethan had remained at the club.

Lille

Mbappé signed for fellow Ligue 1 club Lille on 4 July 2024, on a three-year contract running until 2027. He chose to wear shirt number 29 and stated, "At my age, staying in France was the best option to grow. I think Lille was the best project. It's one of the best clubs in France."…

In November 2021, Mbappé was called up to the France under-16s.

Ethan is a technical, left-footed midfielder. He has been praised for his mentality, football intelligence, calmness on the ball, and passing ability.

Born in Montreuil, Seine-Saint-Denis, Mbappé was raised in a footballing family, with brother Kylian and adopted brother Jirès Kembo Ekoko both having professional football careers. Their father Wilfrid Mbappé is Cameroonian soccer coach and their mother Fayza Lamari is a French handball player of Algerian origin.
