French Football star Kylian Mbappé set to appear on FIFA 22 cover for the second time in a row
EA Sports released the first official trailer for FIFA 22 just yesterday and, as expected, it became a topic for title-tattle soon after. Interestingly, EA Sports French football prodigy Kylian Mbappe is to be on the cover of one of their most successful franchises for the second consecutive time, alongside Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
While a new title in the 27-year-old franchise causes a lot of anticipation, which players will be on the cover of the game remains a hot topic.

The PSG forward has broken several records since his European debut and is undoubtedly one of the best players in the world right now, often compared to heavyweights like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

The 22 year old French forward also played an instrumental role in helping France win the 2018 FIFA World Cup, also scoring an insane screamer in the final.
Even though Mbappe failed to win the Champions League with PSG and also missed a crucial penalty against Switzerland, which ultimately resulted in them being eliminated from the Euros, the youngest player to reach 25 goals in the Champions League remains one of the most celebrated footballers.
