Africa-Press – Eritrea. <\/strong><\/span>French and Real Madrid star, Kylian Mbappe, met his wax double at home in the Spanish capital.<\/b><\/p>\n

The statue of the footballer, wearing the French national team jersey and captain\u2019s bracelet, is to be exhibited at London\u2019s Madame Tussaud Museum<\/p>\n

The forward collaborated with a team of artists at Madame Tussaud for several months and was delighted with the results which shows him posed with his arms crossed,.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh, wow. The new jersey, even the new boots. That’s me. I love it, amazing,\u201d he said when coming face-to-face with the wax replica of himself.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a big honour, I want to say thanks to people who worked it and be part of this project as it is a big achievement for me, big honour, to be part of the Madame Tussauds family,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The statue will arrive at Madame Tussaud\u2019s Baker Street venue in London just before the arrival of the French star in the British capital.<\/p>\n

Real Madrid are to play Arsenal in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals on 8 April.<\/p>\n

To commemorate the new attraction, Madame Tussaud is offering free entry to youngsters under 16, wearing Mbappe’s official jersey, from the 4 to 21 April.<\/p>\n
