The Real Madrid striker has given an interview in which he reviewed his adaptation to our country over these past two years.
Kylian Mbappรฉย ย is proving to be one of the standout players of this World Cupย . The Real Madrid star was instrumental in giving Franceย their first victory of the tournament against Senegal (3-1)ย after scoring a brace that made himย the all-time leading scorer for ‘Les Bleus‘ย . Plagued by injuries for part of this season with the Merengues, the number 10 is now in peak form and, after netting 42 goals at the Santiago Bernabรฉu, has arrived at the World Cup with more ambition than ever. Shortly before the tournament, Mbappรฉ gave an interview to ‘ZCorner’ in which he reflected on his own experience and adaptation to Spain after two yearsโwhich will be up in Julyโsince his signing for Real Madrid, highlighting what he likes most about the Spanish people.ย
โWhat surprised me most is that they eat very late. In France, for example, we have breakfast at nine, lunch at noon, and dinner at eight. But here, everything is very relaxed, very chill,โ said Kylian , who praised the lifestyle of his homeland. โWhen I say something, they always tell me to relax. They take life calmly, they wait for things to come to them. Itโs funny because they have no pressure about anything, zero pressure, and thatโs something Iโve learned from them; theyโre down-to-earth people,โ added the Frenchman, who, at just 27 years old, could become the all-time leading scorer in World Cup history this summer. To date, Mbappรฉ has 14 goals in 15 matches, surpassed only by Leo Messi, who has 16 goals in 27 games.
Regarding his private life off the pitch, ‘Kiki’ has stated that he almost always chooses a quiet and peaceful existence, contrary to the almost universal perception of elite athletes. โEveryone thinks your life is very exciting, that footballers do everything, but sometimes we simply love to relax at home and do nothing, like everyone else. Once, a friend of mine brought another friend to my house and was surprised that I wasn’t doing anything. I told him, ‘It’s Sunday, I just want to stay home,’โ the striker remarked, who is looking forward to the upcoming season with Real Madrid, welcoming the arrival of Josรฉ Mourinho . The footballer has also been affectionate on social media with Ibrahima Konatรฉ , another signing by Florentino Pรฉrez, and could play a significant role in finalizing the transfer of Michael Olise .
A cinematic Mbappรฉ
While training with his national team in the United States, Mbappรฉ continues to surprise everyone. And although rumors have even placed him outside of Real Madrid, nothing could be further from the truth. Quite the opposite, in fact; the player has emphasized his intention to succeed in the white jersey and has become a cinematic star, having headlined the advertising campaign for ‘Minions and Monsters ,’ the seventh film in the ‘Despicable Me’ universe. The promotion, which coincides with the World Cup, aims to leverage the striker’s global reach to attract audiences of all ages. The film, which transports the Minions to early 20th-century Hollywood, will be released on July 1st.
