Melingo Kevin Mbabu (born 19 April 1995) is a Swiss professional footballer who plays as a right-back for Danish Superliga club Midtjylland and the Switzerland national team.

In May 2018, Mbabu was named in the Switzerland's preliminary squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia. However, he was cut from the squad after Switzerland's preliminary squad was cut to 26. He made his debut on 8 September 2018, in the starting lineup against the 2018–19 UEFA Nations League match against Iceland. In May 2019, he played in 2019 UEFA Nations League Finals, where his team finished 4th.

In 2021, he was called up to the national team for the 2020 UEFA European Championship, where the team upset favorites France en route to the quarter-finals, where they lost to Spain.

Mbabu was born in Chêne-Bougeries, Switzerland, to a Democratic Congolese mother and a French father, He has two sisters (one of which is his step–sister) and one brother. However, Mbabu revealed that he never met his biological father and when his mother was remarried, his Austrian step–father raised him and played a role of introducing him to football. As he was introduced to football, he played in the forward position before switching to the defender position.

Alongside his native French, Mbabu reportedly speaks English and German (though he acknowledged the difficulty of the language).
