France captain Kylian Mbappe has predicted that Argentinian skipper and his former PSG teammate, Lionel Messi, will score at least one goal against Spain in the FIFA World Cup final on Sunday.

Mbappe's World Cup campaign ended after France lost to England 6-4 in the third-place match. However, the French skipper is leading the tally of goal scorers in the 2026 edition of the World Cup with 10 goals, putting him two clear of Messi, who has scored eight.
