His team-mates looked delighted to see him return, well almost all of them, as Mbappe’s brother, 16-year-old Ethan Mbappe, was caught giving the forward a ‘death stare’ as they welcomed him back.
His elder brother fell short in the 2022 World Cup final in Qatar to Messi – despite scoring a hat-trick and forcing the match into a penalty shoot-out.
Fans have been left in laughter after seeing the face the youngster pulled as Messi walked back onto the training pitch.

One said: ‘Mbappe’s brother is planning his revenge.’
A second posted: ‘Mbappe’s younger brother staring Messi in anger.’
A third tweeted: ‘Messi better sleep with one eye open.’
A fourth chimed in, by saying: ‘The way Ethan Mbappe is giving death stares!’
Another added: ‘Mbappe’s brother is ready for revenge.’
Mbappe, who notched a hat-trick in the final but still fell short to his team-mate, was not in attendance for the guard of honor.
Neither was Achraf Hakimi, as they both enjoy a break in New York, having been rushed back following the World Cup.

The Parisian giants made their return to domestic action against Strasbourg on December 28 – following the World Cup break – without the Argentina captain.
His team-mates Neymar and Mbappe – who starred in the World Cup final just 10 days prior – started the fixture however Messi remained in Argentina.
It will now be down to boss Christophe Galtier to integrate him back into the side, with the Ligue 1 fixture against Angers on January 11 seen as the earliest he is expected to feature.
