Kylian Mbappe Purchases Majority Stake in French Club Caen
Kylian Mbappe, the star forward for Real Madrid, has made headlines with his recent acquisition of a French professional football club, Caen.
At just 25 years old, Mbappe is set to become the majority owner of the club after finalizing a deal worth just under €20 million.
According to Le Parisien, the purchase means that Mbappe will hold the majority of shares in Caen, while Pierre-Antin Capton will retain a minority stake, valued at €5 million.
This move marks a significant milestone for the France captain, further cementing his influence both on and off the pitch.
Currently, Caen competes in French Ligue 2, and Mbappe’s investment is expected to bring considerable attention and possibly new opportunities to the club.
This acquisition aligns with Mbappe’s growing presence in the football world, not only as a top player but also as a key figure in the management and development of the sport.
