And in doing so he will emulate his elder brother, who also progressed through the youth ranks of the France national set-up.
Ethan, 15, is set to take part in a training camp and could take part in a friendly match if one is scheduled.
It has been a successful few months for the teenager who penned his first contract with Paris Saint-Germain last summer.
That has tied the midfielder’s future to the club until at least 2024.
Ethan has impressive physical qualities and already stands at 5 ft 9, just a few centimetres shorter than brother Kylian.
Speaking to RMC Sport, director of INF Clairefontaine Jean-Claude Lafargue said of Ethan: “He’s a very elegant midfielder.
“He is very fluent, he is very intelligent. He’s a player in the making, that’s for sure.”
Ethan also came up with Mbappe’s iconic celebration during a game of FIFA, with the PSG star first unveiling it after scoring against Borussia Dortmund.
