On the back of his stellar shows on the soccer field, Kylian Mbappe, 24, has established himself as a superstar transcending the sport. From signing lucrative endorsements to crossing paths with elite athletes outside of soccer, Mbappe has been living a king-sized life. The 2018 world champion has famously interacted with NBA icon LeBron James and set a stir in the sporting world. Now, yet another NBA star wants to come together with Kylian Mbappe, offering a surprise collaboration for a noble cause.

Sporting icons seldom shy away from acting for the greater good. Such campaigns become all the more important and exciting when talents from two different sports merge.
