Kylian Mbappe’s brother Ethan is called up to France U16 squad as he follows in PSG star’s footsteps
KYLIAN MBAPPE'S brother Ethan has been called up to the latest France under-16 squad.
The youngster will visit Clairefontaine over the next few days.
And in doing so he will emulate his elder brother, who also progressed through the youth ranks of the France national set-up.
Ethan, 15, is set to take part in a training camp and could take part in a friendly match if one is scheduled.
It has been a successful few months for the teenager who penned his first contract with Paris Saint-Germain last summer.
That has tied the midfielder's future to the club until at least 2024.
Ethan has impressive physical qualities and already stands at 5 ft 9, just a few centimetres shorter than brother Kylian.

"He is very fluent, he is very intelligent. He’s a player in the making, that’s for sure."
Ethan also came up with Mbappe's iconic celebration during a game of FIFA, with the PSG star first unveiling it after scoring against Borussia Dortmund.
