5 superstars making their World Cup debut in Russia
The 2018 FIFA World Cup is just round the corner and the 32 teams destined to play in football's premier tournament have been confirmed.
While this World Cup may have lost some big names in Buffon, Sanchez, Robben, Chellini, Vidal and Bale due to their team's failure to qualify for the tournament.
But still there are some common household names who you won't believe are going to play in the World Cup for the first time in their career.
Here are 5 superstars who will make their World Cup debut in Russia:
#1 Kylian Mbappe (Forward, France):
The Golden Boy winner in 2017, Kylian Mbappe has become football's darling since his impressive display against Europe's elite in the Champions League.
Currently he is a part of a PSG side boasting of one of the most dangerous attacking frontline in world football consisting of Brazilian superstar Neymar and Uruguayan sniper Edison Cavani.
His stellar performances for both Monaco and PSG in Ligue 1 and the Champions League earned him a call up to the national team in March 2017. On March 25 2017, at just 18 years of age, he made his first appearance in Les Bleus colors.
A pacy winger who does not shy away from taking on defenders, Mbappe is in company of some immensely talented group of footballers in the French national team and boasts of a really impressive set of skills and tricks.
The 2018 World Cup in Russia will be his first major tournament with the French National team and with the whole world watching, Mbappe will be hoping to do something special.
