Ethan Mbappé signs new contract with LOSC Lille

Ethan Mbappé, the 19‑year‑old midfielder and younger brother of Kylian Mbappé, has agreed to extend his deal with French club LOSC Lille. The new three‑year contract, announced by L'Equipe, includes a salary increase and replaces the previous agreement that was set to expire in June 2027.

The extension ends recent transfer speculation linking the player with clubs in Spain, Germany and the Netherlands. Lille’s president Olivier Létang and new coach Davide Ancelotti confirmed that the club sees Mbappé as a key part of its future, with the player already contributing three Ligue 1 goals and several assists in his first two seasons. The deal is expected to raise his market value and keep him at Stade Pierre‑Mauroy as the team prepares for the 2026‑27 campaign.
