Real Madrid superstar Kylian Mbappe makes a major announcement just days after World Cup exit.
Kylian Mbappe and France were eliminated from the 2026 FIFA World Cup by the eventual champions, Spain, in the semifinals of the tournament.
Mbappe and co. had no answer for Spain’s heavy-possession style of soccer as they were handed a 2-0 defeat. The star striker’s woes only continued after losing the third-place game against England.
But the Real Madrid star has already forgotten about the unsuccessful World Cup run and has made a major EA FC 27 announcement, mimicking Cristiano Ronaldo.
Kylian Mbappe makes Cristiano Ronaldo-esque ‘I’m back’ announcement
Ronaldo had yet another disappointing run at the World Cup as the Portugal captain’s most prominent performance came during a Group Stage match against Uzbekistan.
He scored two goals against them and then celebrated by saying, ‘I’m back’ to the camera after the game, only to score just once in the knockouts, and that too with a penalty.
Coming back to Mbappe’s announcement, the Madrid superstar used the same ‘I’m back’ caption after being named the cover athlete of EA FC 27.
“You know damn well what you’re doing, Kylian,” a fan wrote. While another added, “Wow, the I’m back sounds familiar.”
“I thought they said Mbappe respected Ronaldo why is he trolling him?” a third fan questioned the French forward.
“The last person who made this statement ended up in tears,” a fourth fan pointed out. While a shocked fan stated, “Mbappe mocking Ronaldo.”
While Mbappe didn’t mention Ronaldo in his X post, fans believe it was a subtle shot at the 41-year-old’s failed announcement during the World Cup.
