KYLIAN MBAPPE looks this way and that – but he can’t make a double take!
That’s because one of the Kylians is a real killjoy…
Mbappe’s waxwork was unveiled at The Grevin Museum in Paris on Thursday and the Paris Saint-Germain teenage sensation was happy to pose alongside himself.
Which one is the real Mbappe?
Well, pictures tell their own story and that’s certainly the case here.

Hopefully, 19-year-old Mbappe’s wax copycat will meet with a better reception than the preview of French president Emmanuel Macron’s drew earlier this week.
Grevin directors were forced to admit Macron’s statue was not quite as flattering as the 40-year-old deserved.
Twitter users compared him to an android or the killer doll Chucky from the “Child’s Play” slasher movies, while one wit said the only thing they got right was his ubiquitous solid-blue tie.
Admitted Grevin’s Yves Delhommeau: “A tense and anguished face, a frozen statue that doesn’t ‘live’, this is not beautiful, something just doesn’t work.

Mbappe, meanwhile, Mbappe was included in Didier Deschamps French squad of 23 for the World Cup.
His inclusion comes amid reports that Real Madrid have made Mbappe a target for next season and are even willing to give up their pursuit of Neymar to land him.

The teenage scoring sensation was courted by Madrid last summer but PSG beat them to his signature and took him from Monaco on loan, ostensibly to get around FIFA’s Financial Fair Play rules, with an option to sign him this July for £160million.
The French champions have insisted Neymar is going nowhere.
Madrid, though, could see this as the ideal time to lure Mbappe to Spain and out of the clutches of clubs like Manchester City, who are also reported to be keen on the youngster.
