Paris Saint-Germain strongman Kylian Mbappé has lamented the loss of his “spontaneity” during his rise to stardom.
The player said he has struggled to adjust to his own fame in France in recent years and would like nothing more than to disappear into the shadows of public life in the French capital. He complained of losing the ability to do everyday things in Paris, which could be interpreted as a potential boost for Real Madrid, who have been linked with signing the striker on a free transfer when his contract expires this summer.
A boost for Real?
At the Special Envoy microphone, he declared: “Go buy bread at the bakery? I would pay so much money now to be able to do this kind of thing, which is normal for most people. I lost the spontaneity, the spontaneity of being a human being.”
Asked what he would do if he could become invisible for 48 hours, the Bondy crack man replied: “ I would spend my two days outside, that’s for sure! I can say it without thinking. Go eat quietly in a brasserie, go out, go with friends, party quietly, without anyone coming to see me. The next morning, a nice brunch in the sun on a terrace, that’s it. The simple things in life ».
Mbappé has of course become one of the most famous players in world football since his time at PSG, winning the World Cup with France in 2018 and scoring 234 goals in 283 games for the capital club. He is also a six-time Ligue 1 winner, and has won 75 caps with the Blues, scoring 46 times. The former Monegasque is likely to be at the center of rumors for some time to come, given that his contract expires this summer. He has not yet made a decision about his future.
