France forward, Kylian Mbappe admitted that his unimaginable rise to the top of world football has totally transformed his life.
Mbappe, who joined Paris Saint-Germain from Ligue 1 rivals Monaco for a staggering £166million, has become one of the top stars in football and won the World Cup with France this summer at the tender age of 19.
The French star has been remarkably making headlines across Europe for years now and is being regarded to soon surpass Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo as the best player in world football.
And with his stock continuing to develop rapidly, Mbappe has earned an appearance on the cover of Time magazine’s international edition, which will appear on Friday.
Kylian Mbappe who has won two Ligue 1 titles, has sat down with Time to discuss his journey to the top, admitting he has fulfilled his dreams already, but it has come at a price.
The teenager said: ‘My life has been totally turned around for the better. I am happy, and I am living the life I always dreamt of.
Having becoming a star at such a young age, Mbappe has remained humble throughout and this sets him apart from the rest trying to make it to the top.
The Frenchman recently donated his World Cup earnings £378,000 to a charity teaching sports to sick and disabled children as early promised. And he intends to remain as humble as ever.
‘I have learned that the biggest stars and the greatest players are the most humble ones, the ones who respect people the most.
‘You always have to keep some lucidity,’ Mbappe adds. ‘There are three criteria:
respect,
humility
and lucidity.
