From his trademark celebratory stance to the minute details of his facial features, the wax statue is an uncanny representation of one of the world's best players.
Mbappe is the latest global superstar to be honored with a waxwork, following in the footsteps of fellow icons like Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and David Beckham.
It comes amid huge speculation over his future, with Mbappe widely expected to join Real Madrid after confirming his PSG exit when his contract expires this summer.

Despite only being 25 years old, Mbappe has already won a World Cup with France and multiple league titles in an enormously successful career to date.
He will no doubt be hoping to add many more trophies and personal accolades to his collection in the years ahead - maybe even alongside his uncanny wax doppelganger.
