KYLIAN MBAPPE has fired an ominous World Cup warning after firing France into a quarter-final showdown with the Three Lions on Saturday.
The PSG superstar is now the tournament’s top scorer after his second-half double sealed a 3-1 win against Poland and took his goals tally to five.
And the 23-year-old now has his sights set firmly on Gareth Southgate’s team as he targets a second World Cup winners’ medal.
He said: “This is the competition of my dreams and my only objective is to win the World Cup again.
“The most important thing for me right now is the quarter-final match. That is my only focus.
“I have been preparing for this competition all season both mentally and physically. I wanted to be ready and I am delighted to be here.
“We are still a long way from our ultimate objective which is to win the trophy.
“But we are delighted to win this game and get through to the quarter-finals.
“I have not come to Qatar to win the Golden Boot or the Golden Ball.
“If I get them I will be happy but that’s not what I am here for.

“I am here to help the French team to win the World Cup.
“Today was a difficult game against a very tough Polish side but we managed to score at the important moments.
“We showed good control even though we didn’t play as well as we could have.
“But we got the result and that is all that matters.”
Mbappe will be aiming to add to his World Cup tally against England, following the Three Lions’ comfortable 3-0 win over Senegal last night.
