Is Kylian Mbappe expecting a baby?! Real Madrid star's thumb-sucking celebration explained after latest goal against Sevilla

Mbappe starred in Madrid's latest 2-0 win over Sevilla on Sunday. He scored the opening goal of the match in the 78th minute, while Jude Bellingham added to the tally eight minutes later to save the club from yet another embarrassment.

After breaking the deadlock late into the game, the French winger was spotted pulling off a thumb-sucking celebration, which prompted people to think that the 26-year-old might be expecting his firstborn child. However, it was later revealed that Mbappe was dedicating his goal to a staff member who is expecting a baby. The player was also spotted hugging the staff on the sidelines after the goal.

The strike against Sevilla took Mbappe's total goals tally to 29 in La Liga as he extended his lead over Robert Lewandowski to four goals in the race for the La Liga Golden Boot award.

Los Blancos will play their final league game on May 24 as they take on Real Sociedad at Santiago Bernabeu. It will be the farewell game for outgoing manager Carlo Ancelotti.
