At one time, social media was flooded with posts about ‘Project Mbappe’ and here’s what you need to know about the phenomenon.
By winning the World Cup, four Ligue 1 titles and three Ballon d’Or nominations before the age of 21, Kylian Mbappe has become one of the most successful young players in the world. Mbappe’s impressive achievements in his football career have inspired many fans, wanting to raise their children to become stars like Mbappe. That is the ‘Mbappé Project’
What is the Mbappe project?
Born from the fantasy idea of turning your child into the next Mbappe through serious football coaching from an early age. The idea of ‘Project Mbappe’ has become a phenomenon on social networks with the goal of raising children to become football stars like Mbappe.
Football fans joke that from the moment their baby is in the womb, they will let him listen to the Champions League soundtrack. And as soon as their child starts to walk, they will be taught about foot movements.
While the subject is sometimes brought up satirically, there’s no denying that raising children to be GOAT (Greatest Of All Time) in football is a compelling idea.
However, becoming the next Mbappe is not a simple task. Hard work and talent are only part of what makes Mbappe, the French player is also born with special qualities, and you cannot create that.
Funny stories about ‘Project Mbappe’ are shared on social networks, it shows the love and passion of football fans for the sport.
Despite the controversy, “Project Mbappe” has inspired many parents and football fans. We still expect and hope for more Mbappes to come. However, parents must also understand that raising children to become football stars needs to be applied in a reasonable and proper way.
