#3 Kylian Mbappe (Paris Sanit-Germain)
The man who probably had the best time in Russia was the magnificent French forward - Kylian Mbappe. He was the man of the tournament without a doubt for the French team that went on to lift the World Cup.
He has steadily been acquiring a reputation of being the best striker in world football currently and the fact that he not only was a part of the side that became World Champions but was also awarded the Best Young Player of the Tournament will only help his stock rise meteorically.
He will cost PSG around €187 million to get him permanently on their books after they signed him on loan from Monaco last season. With his heroics at the World Cup, murmurings of world-record bids being lined-up have begun surfacing.
Real Madrid have denied making a €240 million move for the talisman goal-scorer, whereas a report in the Manchester Evening News has claimed that United are eyeing a move for Mbappe that, should it go through, will most definitely annihilate the record for the most expensive transfer in football history.
Interesting times, monetarily included, to look forward to for the man who stole the limelight at the 2018 World Cup.
