Kylian Mbappe has an 'annoying and stressful' habit when conducting interviews, according to a France teammate.
The Paris Saint-Germain superstar's profile is only rising after a stellar World Cup campaign out in Qatar.
Mbappe won the Golden Boot after scoring eight goals in seven games, including a hat-trick against Argentina in the final.

At club level, he's won five Ligue 1 titles and reached the 2020 Champions League final. Not a bad CV to have a week after your 24th birthday.
According to Adrien Rabiot, there is a chink in Mbappe's armour. One thing he does that drives everyone up the wall. You might've noticed it yourself. Apparently, Mbappe changes his voice when being interviewed pre and post-match.
It's something Juventus midfielder Rabiot can't get over after spending time around the forward at international and club levels. Rabiot played with Mbappe at the Parc des Princes before joining Juventus in 2019.

He jokingly told Le Carre per Marca: "Kylian annoys me when he changes his voice in an interview.
"When we are together, he speaks normally. But when you watch the interview, I don't know why, his voice changes. It's annoying and stressful."
If that's the only problem Mbappe has, it's a given he's going straight to the top, no matter what.

Following his stellar performance against Argentina, the former Monaco man was the brunt of many jokes from Emiliano Martinez.
The Aston Villa goalkeeper relentlessly trolled Mbappe, despite shipping three in the game and conceding his penalty in the shootout.
It's seen several pundits suggest Lionel Messi should've stepped in to stop Martinez in his tracks. PSG manager Christophe Galtier was quizzed about a potential feud between Mbappe and Messi ahead of his side's return to action against Strasbourg on Wednesday.

He said: "I would focus on the relationship between them. It wasn't Leo Messi winding anybody else up.
"What I saw after the final, what I have experienced, is there is no reason to mix these things up because the goalkeeper's behaviour is down to him."
"What matters to me is the relationship between the players. Kylian Mbappe had a very good attitude, despite losing. Of course he was very disappointed, but he did that in a classy way. He congratulated Leo Messi and that is a very good thing for the club and for the team."
