And so, they meet again. A year after his acrimonious departure from Paris Saint-Germain to join Real Madrid on a free transfer, Kylian Mbappé will face his former team for the first time on Wednesday at MetLife Stadium in the Club World Cup semifinals. It will be a bit special, a bit tense and quite nostalgic too.
It's special because the Paris-born prodigy spent seven years at the Parc des Princes, with many highs and lows. He loves the club -- always has, and always will -- just like his family does.
