Kylian Mbappe was born in 1998, in a poor family in the Bondy area – a suburb of Paris, France. Although it is only a short distance from Paris, this place is far from the splendor of the center of the French capital, this place is considered an area with a high crime rate.

Mbappe’s father is a football player from Bondy and is of Cameroonian origin and his mother is of Algerian origin and is a professional handball player.

Becoming a famous player, considered a phenomenon in world football, he is considered a pride by the residents of Bondy.

Mrs. Elmire Florimond (64 years old, from Bondy, Paris, France) currently lives right below the apartment where Mbappe’s family used to live until he was 10 years old.

“Mbappe’s bedroom is right above my children’s bedrooms. At that time, loud noises could be heard because he was constantly kicking the ball around the bedroom. Mbappe’s mother continuously had to apologize. He was a kind and polite person”, Mrs. Elmire Florimond shared about her memories of that time.

Today, when he is successful, this young and talented player often returns to the poor Bondy area to sponsor charities, donate his earnings and build stadiums for the area. .

In 2018, Mbappe donated his entire salary while playing at the 2018 World Cup to for charity with a total amount of 400,000 USD.

He shared: “I have earned enough money and have a lot of money. So I think it’s important to help people in need. Many people are suffering… for people like us, helping people is not a big deal”.

Huge wealth even though he is only 24 years old

According to Goal.com, this player’s net assets are estimated at 100 million Euros (2,500 billion VND). Forbes website once said that Mbappe earned more than 30 million USD (705 billion VND) in 2019 alone. This number makes the Frenchman one of the highest-paid players in the world.

Mbappe’s image and success are an inspiration for the younger generations in Bondy. Aya – a teenager in Bondy still walks past the giant image of Mbappe painted on the wall of his apartment building to go to school every day. Mbappe is an example and inspiration for this female student who dreams of becoming a law student.

Aya shared: “He proves that if you work hard, you don’t have to come from a rich family to achieve success.”

Last summer, Mbappe signed a contract extension with French club PSG. The contract period is until 2015 and this player’s weekly salary is more than 800,000 USD (18.8 billion VND). However, recently there has been a lot of information that the relationship between Mbappe and the club broke down just because PSG did not keep their promise to pay the committed salary.

In November 2022, The Sun newspaper reported that Mbappe was angry after part of the club’s salary payment to him in September did not go into his account. There was even information that Mbappe wanted to leave PSG after feeling “betrayed”.

In addition to salary and bonuses from football, Mbappe is also sought after by many brands. Becoming a brand ambassador or promoting the brand image is also a way for this player born in 1998 to “make money”.

In 2018, Mbappe was invited by luxury watch company Hublot to be a brand ambassador alongside soccer king Pele, athletics legend Usain Bolt. Mbappe’s talent and performance at the club as well as the 2018 World Cup with France helped him catch the “blue eye” by Hublot.

Mbappe also owns a car collection with many expensive cars. Specifically, this guy owns a Ferrari 488 Pista that costs more than 527,000 Euros, a Volkswagen Tiguan that costs 57,000 Euros, a Volkswagen Touareg that costs 120,000 Euros, and a Mercedes-Benz V Class that costs more than 134,000 Euros. In addition to the cars mentioned above, the French player also owns a BMW, an Audi and a Range Rover.
