France captain Kylian Mbappe admits he's aware of Brighton striker Evan Ferguson ahead of their Euro qualifier against the Republic of Ireland.
PSG star Mbappe scored two goals in Friday's 4-0 rout of the Netherlands and will captain the French in Dublin on Monday.
Ferguson was on target as the Republic beat Latvia 3-2 in a friendly last week on his first senior start.
"He's a good striker, an important striker for that team," said Mbappe.
Ferguson, 18, scored twice to help Brighton reach the FA Cup semi-finals and has been attracting rave reviews in his first season in the Premier League.
"We've seen some clips about him, of course," added the 24-year-old, who scored three goals in December's World Cup final.
"But we hope tomorrow he's going to do nothing and that means we are going to win and we're going to do our job. But he is a good player."
