KYLIAN MBAPPE’S younger brother has followed him out of the exit door this summer.
Kylian signed for Real Madrid on the expiry of his PSG contract after spending six years at the Parc Des Princes.
He is set to be announced later this month in a mega player presentation which will involve a catwalk built from the dressing room to the pitch and live music acts.
His brother, Ethan, 17, is looking to “progress his career” and move from the shadow of his superstar brother.
He has signed on a free transfer for Ligue 1 club Lille and has signed a three year contract with the side based in the north of France.
Speaking after the club announced the transfer, Ethan said: “For me, at my age, staying in France was the best option to progress.
“I think LOSC was the best project. It is one of the best in France.
“I look forward to starting this adventure and meeting my new team-mates, the staff, as well as the supporters.
“It’s a real pride to be able to play here.”
His new contract at Lille represents his first professional contract of his career, as he was still signed as a youth player at PSG.

The player made five professional appearances for PSG’s first-team and was largely a youth team player during his time in the French capital.
He joined PSG’s youth set up in 2017, when Kylian completed his £166million move from Monaco.
Unlike Kylian, Ethan is a central midfielder who can also operate in defensive midfield.
He will wear the number 29 at Lille, the same number Kylian initially wore when he joined PSG from Monaco.
Lille finished fourth in Ligue 1 last season, earning them a place in the Europa League.
