Mbappe returns to training days after World Cup disappointment
The 24-year-old cast a despondent figure in the aftermath of France's loss to Argentina - led by his PSG team-mate Lionel Messi - in a penalty shootout, despite his goals twice bringing the 2018 champions level.
However, although PSG players have been given 10 days off Mbappe was pictured at the French champions training ground.
"Kylian Mbappe returned to training on Wednesday," tweeted PSG.
Mbappe, who finished top scorer at the World Cup with eight goals, was not expected back till January and PSG did not say whether he would be available for selection for their Ligue 1 match with Strasbourg on December 28.
His return to training comes the day after a documentary on France's campaign shows Mbappe giving his team-mates a rousing half-time talk in Sunday's final following a limp first-half which saw them trail 2-0.
"It is the World Cup guys, it is the match of a lifetime!" says Mbappe in French broadcaster TF1's documentary.
"In any case we could hardly play worse than we have already done.
"We are going back on the pitch and either we carry on playing like idiots or we up the intensity.
"It is the World Cup Final! We are losing 2-0 but we can come back.
"Hey guys, this only comes around once every four years."
Although Mbappe led the fightback it took till the 80th minute - when he scored a penalty to make it 2-1 - for the team to really find the fighting spirit.
Mbappe was to go on and score his penalty in the shootout but, with Kingsley Coman and Aurelien Tchouameni both missing but Argentina were not to be denied, with Gonzalo Montiel tucking away the winning spotkick.
