– Killian Mbappe, Real Madrid star and captain of the French national team, continues to expand his influence outside the football fields through strategic investments in various fields.
After investing in a second -class football club, a German electronic equipment company, and a start -up company in virtual trading cards, Mbappe now decided to enter the sailing world.
According to Forbes magazine, Mbappe is seeking to build a financial empire similar to American star Libon James, whose wealth exceeded one billion euros by 2022.
Using the advice of his mother, Fayza Lamari and his lawyer Delphin Verheiden, Mbappe focuses on choosing projects that are in line with his principles.
His commitment to values appeared in 2022 when he refused to participate in advertising sessions of gambling and fast food companies, which he considers harmful to young people.
These values are also reflected in its investments, as it has a stake in the French company Sorare for digital trading cards, as well as its acquisition of 10% of LOEWE, which enhances its association with technology and music.
He was not satisfied with investing in the technology sector.
He also launched his own production and distribution company, Zebra Valley, which works in the fields of sports, video and music.
Although the exact figures of his investments are unknown, reports indicate that Mbappe is more interested in building his image as an innovative entrepreneur, more than direct financial returns.
Thanks to his last contract with Paris Saint -Germain in 2022, which was estimated at 72 million euros annually, he was among the world’s highest -paid athletes.
Despite his decrease in his football income after moving to Real Madrid in 2024, he compensated this by increasing his revenue from the image of the image, which enhances his position as a successful entrepreneur besides being a global player.
