Kylian Mbappe, one of the most exciting footballers of his generation, was born in the Paris suburbs of Bondy. His unique heritage reflects the multicultural fabric of his family.

Despite his diverse background, he adheres to his home country’s religious tradition of Christianity. Mbappé comes from a family of sportsmen. His mother was a professional handball player, while his father, Wilfried, not only played football but also pursued his coaching career at local club Bondy. Even Mbappé’s adopted brother, Jires Kembo-Ekoko, found his calling on the football pitch.
From a young age, it was clear that Mbappe was destined for greatness. His father, recognising his talent, personally trained him and then enrolled him in the famous Clairefontaine academy, which has produced football legends such as Thierry Henry and Lilian Thuram. Despite the distance between their home and the academy, Mbappe’s father made the daily effort to transport him to training. These efforts paid off as, at just 13 years old, Mbappe caught the eye of Spanish giants Real Madrid, with none other than Zinedine Zidane himself trying to persuade him to join their ranks. However, guided by his father, the young prodigy chose to continue his youth career with the illustrious AS Monaco, signing a contract with the club when he was just 15. Since then, Mbappe’s rise to stardom has been nothing short of meteoric. With his explosive pace, exceptional ball control and clinical finishing, he has mesmerised fans and terrified defenders.
