Rising Trend: Why Footballers Like Mbappé Are Investing in Football Clubs?

At just 25, Kylian Mbappé is making waves not only on the field but also in the boardroom. The Real Madrid star is set to become the majority owner of Stade Malherbe de Caen, a French second division club.

This move marks him as one of the youngest active players to own a professional European football club, a testament to his ambition and vision beyond his playing career.

Mbappé’s decision to invest around €15 million to acquire 80% of Caen’s shares isn’t just a financial venture. It’s a nod to his personal history, as he once had trials with the club during his youth.
