AFTER Kylian Mbappe was handed a new shirt number by Paris Saint-Germain, the World Cup winner has also bagged himself a snazzy pair of new boots.
Mbappe helped Les Bleus become world champions for the second time as they triumphed at Russia 2018.

Kylian Mbappe has two stars in his boots to commemorate France’s second World Cup win
And Nike have customised their Mercurial boots for the brilliant forward and added a pair of stars to the tongue in his honour.
France already had one star above their shirt crest before the World Cup, having won the 1998 tournament on home soil.
Mbappe, 19, netted a beauty in the second half and now has a constant reminder on his boots.

Mabppe proudly showed off his new Nike boots on social media
He proudly showed off his footwear to his 16.6million Instagram followers ahead of his return to action.
Mbappe was back at training last week but did not play in the French champions’ opening league win over Caen on Sunday.
When the former Monaco man is back on the pitch, he will be wearing 7 on his back instead of 29 this season.
He has picked up the shirt that Lucas Moura vacated when the Brazilian winger switched to Tottenham in January for £25m.
