We've seen him with his arms crossed a lot this season. And Kylian Mbappe has revealed the reason behind his goal celebration.

The 18-year-old has enjoyed a meteoric rise to super-stardom following his heroics for AS Monaco, in particular his exploits in the Champions League.

The French outfit have reached the Champions League semi-final after dumping out Manchester City then Borussia Dortmund.

In the process, the teenage sensation has shattered a couple of records in the competition;

He first became the youngest player to score twice in a Champions League knockout fixture at the age of 18 years and 113 days old.

Then followed that impressive feat by becoming the first player in Champions League history to score in his first four knockout games

And while he continues to bag goals, he's also become synonymous with his famous goal celebration - arms crossed.

His signature move is inspired from his little brother, as detailed below.

Class.

Despite their incredible European excursion, it appears they're at the end of the road following their 2-0 home defeat in the first leg to Juventus.

Mbappe and Co. travel to Turn this week to face a stubborn Juve for a place in the final as they seek to overturn the two goal deficit.

The 'Old Lady' boast a water-tight defence, though if any side is to score past them it's Leonardo Jardim's free-flowing charges.

With the season drawing to an end, it's set to be an interesting summer for the talented striker.

He's been linked with a whopping move away from France as Real Madrid, Arsenal, Manchester United, to name but a few, continue to monitor his situation.

Will he stay or will he go? Watch this space.
