A Man Of High Tastes: How Kylian Mbappé Spends His Mountains Of Cash
By Frank Odinukaeze
Kylian Mbappé is one of the best footballers in the world, with a World Cup already under his belt and a second just a penalty shoot-out away, he has accomplished a great deal for a 24-year-old and his $72,000,000 US a year salary reflects that. But how does he spend his mountains of cash?
Mbappe grew up in the Parisian suburb of Bondy, an area not known for its luxury housing. But with his newfound wealth, Mbappe has upgraded his living conditions,and is now living like a king, with his new home costing over $10 million US according to reports.
Mbappé’s luxury apartment,located in the central area of Paris, spans multiple floors in the very centre of City with views over the Eiffel Tower and the Champs de Mar per The Sun’s report.
Mbappé ,whose family is close to his chest,has claimed his house is his biggest expense. He stated, “My biggest expense? A nice house, it’s important for my family”
Mbappé’s home is certainly something to behold, featuring 12 bedrooms, a basketball court, a library, and a Turkish bath. This is not your usual Parisian apartment.Indeed,this is not an ordinary apartment
Mbappé’s spending doesn’t stop at his apartment,it also includes,as he has stated , a burgeoning luxury car collection. The pride of his collection is a brand new Ferrari Hybrid SF90 Stradale worth over $515,000.
According to The Sun, as well as his SF90, he also owns a Mercedes V Class van, a Volkswagen Multivan, and a Ferrari 488 Pista, which is quite the collection.
Despite the multi-million dollar car collection at his disposal, the Frenchman hasn’t even learned how to drive, preferring to use a private driver.
In an interview with Spanish outlet Marca, Mbappé claims, “It’s one of the downsides of being successful early, I missed simple things like having a driver’s license”.
Despite Mbappé’s lack of license, he seems to be doing OK, in the same interview he said, “I had my independence early on because I had drivers at my disposal.” Certainly a different kind of independence from most!
If you think Luxury Cars and House are is only passion,your are mistaken.The PSG striker, like many footballers, is also passionate about his fashion choices, regularly attending the Paris Fashion Show alongside other stars such as Neymar.
PSG gave Mbappé almost everything he wanted when he signed his most recent extension, but they refused one of his more outlandish claims, to get free use of a private jet for up to 50 hours per year! There are limits after all!
One thing about being mega-rich is the chance to ensure everything you own will have your name or initials on it. InMbappé’s case, this includes a Louis Vuitton basketball hoop emblazoned with MB rumored to have cost around $6,000.
Whilst Mbappé is becoming known for his big-spending, he doesn’t forget his own humble beginnings as he spent hundreds of thousands on children’s charities as well as planning to help 98 Parisian children “fulfill their dreams” as part of his own charity, Inspired by KM.
Given this is the level of spending Mbappé is up to at the moment, if his proposed move to Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia, which reportedly includes a $700,000,000 one-year salary, goes through, who knows what he might get up to next!
