Though he has only just turned 20, Kylian Mbappe has already established himself as a footballing genius who can win matches on his own, bring an entire stadium to its feet with a stunning piece of skill, and make any football fan break the bank just to see him play.

There are good players, very good players and then the great players, the ones who people would pay a lot of money to go and see.

So when someone of his stature tells us we need to watch a competition, then we tend to sit up and take notice. Victorious at the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™ with Les Bleus, Mbappe knows exactly how it feels to put a smile on the faces of thousands of fans gathered together in a stadium. And it is his hope that the 24 teams who have qualified for the FIFA Women’s World Cup France 2019™ will experience that very feeling next June and July.

“As you know, France is fortunate enough to be hosting the Women’s World Cup next year, and I hope you will turn up in numbers at the stadiums,” he told FIFA.com in an interview. “Make the most of this unique moment because I think it’s going to be an experience you’ll never forget.”
