Mbappe cuts short break to return to PSG training

France superstar Kylian Mbappe has returned to training at Paris Saint-Germain just days after the World Cup final.

Mbappe, who scored twice in the World Cup final, was still on the losing side against Argentina.

The South American nation prevailed on penalties, with Mbappe converting his spot kick in the shoot out as well.

Speaking to reporters after a friendly win this week, PSG coach Christophe Gaultier stated: "I'm very happy to see him. Kylian had a great World Cup.

"It's also a strong signal for everyone that a player who obviously may have been disappointed not to lift the most beautiful of trophies, even if he was top scorer, is back very quickly with the group, to get ready for dates to come."

Mbappe will be hoping to win Ligue 1 and the Champions League with PSG this term.
