"I'm fatalist about the world of football, but not about life. Life is wonderful. Football is what it is. I like to say that people who go to the stadium are lucky to only come and see a show and not know what's going on behind the scenes. Honestly, if I didn't have this passion, the football world would have disgusted me a long time ago. That's the world we live in, and we can't change it."
"Of his dispute with PSG, he said he had no wish to harm the club where he made his name. It's my right, it's employment law. I signed an employment contract. I just wanted to be paid. I have nothing against PSG, I love the club, I have friends there, but this is the only way to get what I'm owed, something I've earned through"
Kylian Mbappe expresses fatalism about the world of football while affirming that life itself is wonderful. He portrays football as a spectacle that hides problematic behind-the-scenes realities and says only passion prevents disgust. Mbappe declares he would not advise any child of his to enter professional football. He scored his 52nd goal in 92 appearances for France, eclipsing Thierry Henry's record. Mbappe left Paris Saint-Germain amid unresolved conflict and legal action, claiming €55m in unpaid salary and bonus while PSG counter-claim €98m, and he links increased wealth with increased problems.
