Nowadays, Kylian Mbappé is a global football superstar, a remarkable talent with ambitions to achieve greatness at Real Madrid. Both individually and as part of a team, the highest expectations are placed on him.

Over the years, he has enjoyed an outstanding career and is one of the most coveted players in games like FIFA and EA Sports FC. However, like every footballer, Mbappé has humble beginnings that contrast sharply with his current status in the game.

Mbappé made his first appearance in FIFA 17 during a breakout season with AS Monaco, where he made a significant impact on the international stage by helping his team reach the UEFA Champions League semi-finals.

At the time, his FIFA card was a silver card with an overall rating of 71, featuring 81 speed, 64 shooting, 65 passing, 74 dribbling, 39 defending, and 62 physicality. It didn’t take long for him to outgrow these initial ratings; by FIFA 18, he had earned a gold card with an overall rating of 83.
