Kylian Mbappe's twin! Real Madrid star gives his verdict on striking new waxwork project ahead of public debut at Madame Tussauds in London

The forward has been immortalised in wax form following a collaboration with the people at Madame Tussauds, who will put the figure on display at the iconic London museum next week.

This is not the first wax figure that has been made of the 26-year-old, who already has models made of him at Madame Tussauds in Berlin from 2024 and the Musee Grevin, which was made in 2018. Still, the France international was stunned and delighted when he saw the latest version.

"Oh, wow. The new jersey, even the new boots. That's me. I love it, amazing. Oh my God, you've got everything, guys. It's really, really fun, yeah," he said when seeing the statue for the first time.

"It's a big honour. I want to say thanks to all the people who worked on it as part of the project because it's a big achievement for me, a big honour to be part of the Madame Tussauds family. I'm really happy, even more after seeing the results. It's amazing, I'm really proud to be here to see this. It's a big day for me. I love to visit the city, go to the restaurants, to see a little bit of the culture of the country. When you are a football player, you travel a lot and you love to see new cultures, new people, New lifestyles. It's always a pleasure to travel and London is one of the best cities in the world. It's a perfect job and I'm really happy with the results."

Before Mbappe figure goes on display in London on April 4, the man himself will be in action for Madrid when they meet Leganes in La Liga this weekend.
