Kylian Mbappé seems to be rediscovering his form as Real Madrid’s attacking spearhead. On Sunday afternoon, the French striker, who celebrated his 26th birthday this week, scored his 14th goal of the season. To celebrate this achievement, Mbappé imitated NBA star Stephen Curry in his goal celebration.

Despite facing criticism and pressure, Kylian Mbappé has not had an ideal start to life at Real Madrid. He has been plagued by off-field controversies, including a in Sweden and a financial dispute with PSG, which has hampered his form for the Merengues.

Debate over his role has also been a topic of discussion. Normally occupying the left flank in, Mbappé has been forced to quickly adapt to a central striker role for the Spanish side. After a difficult spell, Kylian Mbappé appears to have enjoyed a resurgence. Indeed, the striker, who has just turned 26, has been finding the net consistently for Madrid. After scoring against Pachuca earlier this week, the No. 9 has been on the scoresheet again.

Mbappé scored his 14th goal of the season in the famous white shirt on Sunday afternoon against Sevilla FC, with a beautiful strike from the edge of the box. A fan of various celebrations, the former PSG star paid tribute to Stephen Curry by pretending to fall asleep. The Golden State Warriors star will surely appreciate the tribute.
