Kylian Mbappé Lottin, born on December 20, 1998, in Paris, France, is a renowned French professional footballer celebrated for his exceptional speed, dribbling prowess, and goal-scoring abilities. Raised in Bondy, a suburb northeast of Paris, Mbappé was introduced to football at an early age. His father, Wilfried Mbappé, originally from Cameroon, served as a football coach and director for the local club AS Bondy, where Kylian began his youth career at the age of six. His mother, Fayza Lamari, of Algerian descent, was a former professional handball player. Mbappé's remarkable talent became evident during his time at AS Bondy, leading to his selection for training at Clairefontaine, France's national football academy. In 2013, at the age of 14, he joined AS Monaco's youth system. He made his professional debut with Monaco's first team on December 2, 2015, becoming the youngest first-team player in the club's history at that time. In the 2016–17 season, Mbappé played a pivotal role in Monaco's Ligue 1 title victory, scoring 15 goals and helping the team reach the UEFA Champions League semifinals. His outstanding performances attracted the attention of major European clubs. In 2017, he transferred to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), initially on loan, with the deal becoming permanent in 2018. The transfer was valued at €180 million, making him one of the most expensive players in history. During his tenure at PSG, Mbappé won multiple Ligue 1 titles and domestic cups. He was instrumental in leading PSG to their first UEFA Champions League final in 2020. Individually, he secured the Ligue 1 Player of the Year award multiple times and consistently finished as the league's top scorer. On the international stage, Mbappé made his senior debut for the France national team in 2017. At the 2018 FIFA World Cup, he became the youngest French player to score in a World Cup and the second teenager, after Pelé, to score in a World Cup final. France clinched the tournament, and Mbappé was honored with the FIFA World Cup Best Young Player award. In the 2022 World Cup, he won the Golden Boot as the tournament's top scorer, netting a hat-trick in the final against Argentina. In July 2024, Mbappé fulfilled a long-held ambition by signing with Real Madrid. He was officially presented at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, donning the number 9 jersey. Off the field, Mbappé is known for his philanthropy. He has donated substantial amounts to various charitable causes and has been involved in initiatives supporting children's sports and health. Mbappé's playing style is characterized by his versatility as a forward, capable of playing on either wing or as a central striker. His explosive acceleration, agility, and clinical finishing make him a constant threat to opposing defenses.
