Kebab shop owner being sued by Kylian Mbappe posts two-word reaction to goal

Kylian Mbappe proved his hunger to perform for Paris Saint-Germain remains as strong as ever - much to the annoyance of a kebab shop owner he's suing.

Mbappe - who will be swapping French cuisine for Spanish this summer - opened the scoring for PSG at home to Nice.

The France captain was given his bread and butter after a deft give-and-go with Fabian Ruiz allowed him to poke home after 14 minutes.

While PSG fans inside the Parc des Princes were keen to show their appreciation for their soon-to-be departing superstar, one supporter at home wasn't.

Mohamed Henni, a Marseille influencer, revealed ahead of the game that he was being sued by Mbappe for naming a kebab after him.

Henni claimed to received a legal complaint from the forward's legal team for describing his his Klüb kebab as having 'bakery bread, as round as Mbappe’s head.'

However, the 25-year-old failed to see the funny side of the French toast as a letter was allegedly sent instructing the Instagram celebrity to remove the item from his menu within eight days or face further legal action.

"Are you not ashamed? You have nothing else to do? Suing me for something so futile? It is incredible. I can't believe it!" Henni told his eight million followers.

Henni was left eating his heart out later on however as Mbappe continued putting bread on the table the only way he knows how - by scoring goals.

The influencer posted a photoshopped picture of Mbappe on his Instagram story following his goal, with the caption, which translates: "Hazelnut master."

The popular kebab house has other food named after footballers, with former West Ham star Dimitri Payet honoured with a savoury pancake.

But it seems Mbappe was left with little food for thought as he continues his farewell tour at his boyhood club.

The Frenchman will fulfil his dreams of becoming a Galactico at Real Madrid once his contract at PSG expires at the end of the season.

His latest goal of the season set PSG on their way to the French Cup semi-finals before Ruiz added a second.

Gaetan Laborde halved the deficit for Nice but Lucas Beraldo restored PSG's two-goal advantage to ensure a comfortable ride to the last four, so Mbappe is not eating humble pie yet.
