The badge will be placed above Mbappe’s name on the back of his shirt.

It is a yellow hexagon with a white “S” and a yellow “1” on the inside.

A statement from Ligue 1 read: “More than just a badge, the S1 is a genuine design object conceived by Tyrsa, an artist who has already made a name for himself on a number of occasions, in collaboration with prestigious brands such as Dior, Louis Vuitton and Moncler, and with artists such as FKA Twigs and Childish Gambino.

“The S1 badge symbolizes the meeting of the letter ‘S’ for ‘Scoreur’ and the number ‘1’, joined together on a circuit that illustrates the race among the goalscorers.

“On closer inspection, you can also see the 34 lines that make up the background, like the 34 rounds of the Ligue 1 Uber Eats campaign.
