LifeBogger has prepared it for your reading pleasure and for the love of the game. Without further ado, let’s begin.

Kylian Mbappe Childhood Story:

For Biography starters, he bears the full names; Kylian Adesanmi Lottin Mbappé.

The footballer was born on the 20th day of December 1998 to his mother, Fayza Mbappe Lamari and father, Wilfried Mbappe, in the northeastern Paris suburb of Bondy, France.

Young Kylian was just a baby (six months old) after France won the 1998 World Cup at Stade de France — which is 11km from his family house.

Kylian Mbappe came to the world as the first child of his parents.

Growing Up in Bondy:

Truth be told, Kylian’s youthful years weren’t that pleasant. He grew up in the Paris suburb (Bondy), a town once ravaged by violence and rioting.

The 2005 riot was among the commune’s worst, as it saw the burning of many cars and public buildings.

Kylian Mbappe's family once suffered public demonstrations and disorder in France's Bondy commune.
Kylian Mbappe’s family once suffered public demonstrations and disorder in France’s Bondy commune.

All these happened just around the area where Mbappe’s parents had their family home. Simply put, Bondy is a town synonymous with riots and social strife.

People consider the suburb, located just 10km from Paris, as a breeding ground for crime and terrorism. This was revealed by The New York Times’ article on Kylian Mbappé and the Boys From the Banlieues.

Despite experiencing township agitations in his childhood, the destiny of the future football GOAT got assured.

This was because Wilfried Mbappe, his Dad (a football coach), vowed to safeguard his child’s future even in the face of unrest.

Growing up in the Bondy neighbourhood, young Kylian would never let go of the soccer ball.

Mbappe’s obsession went as far as him taking his football to his bed and using it as a pillow to aid sleep. In an interview, his Dad, Wilfried, once said about his soccer-obsessed child;

Football Success is no accident. As a child, Kylian couldn't let go of the soccer ball so much that he used it as a sleeping tool.

“Kylian has been more than passionate about football . I think he’s crazy.

His love for it almost puts me off even thou I view myself as a football coach.

He’s always into it, 2-4-7. Kylian watches everything. He can watch four or five matches in a row.”

Kylian Mbappe Family Background:

The French man comes from an athletic middle-class household that centres their lifestyle around sports.

Put simply, Kylian Mbappe’s family belongs to the large working-class community of Bondy.

Now, we know this area as a repentant town that pays homage to its greatest football hero. Here is a poster on the building where Mbappe spent his childhood years.

Starting with his parents, the head of the household, Wilfried spent many years as a soccer coach. Fayza Lamari, his Mum, had a successful career as a handball player.

From the onset, Kylian Mbappe’s parents ensured that every member of their family took up sports as their sole occupation.

Jires Kembo-Ekoko, the adopted child of Wilfried, is a professional soccer player. The rest of his half-siblings have also followed in his footsteps.

Kylian Mbappe Family Origin:

Everyone is aware he hails from Bondy, a French commune in the northeastern suburbs of Paris.

However, very few are aware of Kylian Mpabbe’s family roots – which is what we’ll explain in this section of his Biography.

For starters, we tie his lineage to three African countries; Nigeria and Cameroon (through his Dad) and Algeria (through his Mum).

Kylian’s father, Wilfred Mbappe, is a Cameroonian with Nigerian family roots. Once a refuge, he migrated to Northern France in search of greener pastures. Kylian’s mother, Fayza Lamari, is Algerian of Kabyle origin.

Kylian Mbappe comes from mixed-race family roots. We could say he has Algerian, Cameroonian and Nigerian blood in him.

According to French media, Wilfred, in a bid to get a permanent stay, got married to an Algerian-French lady, Fayza Lamari.

The woman of Kabyle origin later became the mother of the self-acclaimed future Football GOAT.

Kylian Mbappe’s Education – Did he go to School?

Although football became his childhood calling, the youngster attended the Conservatory music school from age 6 to 11.

While there, Kylian learned to read music and study the flute. He credits his teacher, Céline Bognini, for helping him learn his second-best hobby (singing) after soccer.

Back in the days, while his music tutor led the choir, Kylian joined him, and together, they cooly performed at Bondy’s town hall park. The repertoire of songs was very varied – thou were mostly French songs.

Asides from giving little time for music, little Kylian said “NO” to unimportant things like going to school on full times basis.

Thou he attended school briefly – where he was classmates with William Saliba. Later on, the PSG star began taking football classes for most of his time.

Away from grazing the game, Wilfried, his Dad, had a few private study sessions with Kylian. In summary, this was Kylian’s own way of home-schooling.

Kylian Mbappe Biography – Football Story:

Kylian Mbappe in his Childhood - a few weeks after joining AS Bondy.
Kylian Mbappe in his Childhood – a few weeks after joining AS Bondy.

While he was age six, in the year 2004, Wilfried enrolled little Kylian at AS Bondy under his coaching care – meaning it was the place he worked.

From that moment, the total focus on football development began. As early as possible, the precocious whiz kid began helping AS Bondy to harvest trophies.

The future Football GOAT began harvesting trophies at a tender age.
The future Football GOAT began harvesting trophies at a tender age.

With his father’s help, little Kylian absorbed the act of clinical finishing, speed and dribbling quickly. In fact, one of his youth coaches at AS Bondy, Antonio Riccardi, once said this about him;

The first time I coached Kylian, you could tell he was different.

He could do much more than the other children at AS Bondy.

Kylian’s dribbling was already fantastic, and he was so faster than the others.

He remains the best player I’ve ever seen in my 15 years coaching children.

In Paris, I know many talents, but I’d never seen a one like him.

The Parental Strategy of Meeting Football Heroes:

During non-footballing hours, there was no going out with friends or attending any sort of events for kids. Kylian, unlike William Saliba (also coached and cared for by his Dad), never lived the normal life as most children had.

Rather than attending birthdays or kid parties, his parents adopted a different approach to bringing up their son.

They conceived the idea of taking Kylian to meet football heroes. Fayza and Wilfried’s first target was French icon – Thierry Henry.

Considered a moment never to forget, meeting the Arsenal legend was a great experience.

At that time, Thierry Henry wasn’t aware he was with a 5-year boy who would break two of his national records.

Little did Thierry Henry know that this little boy would rule the soccer world.

The second next bus stop for the adventurous child became the plan to meet a man with a similar family origin to his mum – Fayza Lamari.

At the time he met Zinedine Zidane, little did the Real Madrid legend know that an ordinary boy would break his Champions League record.

Ohh! If only Zidane knew whom he stood with. We think he regrets it now - because he could not tell Kylian Mbappe's future.

Continued Father-Son Relationship and Quest for Football Trials:

For Wilfried, there was no waiting for his son to become a man before equipping him with the realities of life.

The wise Dad religiously built an affectionate bond with his Kylian – telling him everything about life at an early age.

Back then, when they strolled out, it was always about footballing discussions. It was an imprint of a true father-son friendship that no one could break.

What more could Wilfried give to his Son than what he has given? This is an unmatched Father-Son bond.

From Visiting Big Brother to Rennes Trial:

Those days, Kylian and his parents regularly visited Stade Rennais to watch Jirès Kembo-Ekoko, his big half-brother (where he plays).

At the time Mbappe approached his teenage years, Wilfried felt the time was ripe for his boy to leave his work palace (AS Bondy) for a bigger academy.

Hence, it became the family’s idea for their son to link up with a big brother, Jirès Kembo-Ekoko, at Stade Rennais FC.

The club invited Kylian to trials – which came in the form of a detection tournament for under-12s.

Here is little Kylian wearing the Stade Rennais kits. Guess what?… he single-handedly helped his team win the competition.

In that competition, Kylian was different from everyone. See how some looked at him with envy.

Just after the tournament and as a standout performer, Kylian became priority No 1 for Rennais recruitment team.

Out of desperation, the club went as far as sending officials to visit his family home in a bid to lure Fayza and Wilfried to have their son join their academy.

In the words of Dréossi – one of Renne’s staff;

We tried our best. My team went to Bondy many times to negotiate with his parents. They are people we know well. Wilfried and Fayza are very interesting sports persons. We tried making offers, but didn’t succeed. The bidding took place, and we failed to win the race.

The Clairefontaine Story:

After the failed Rennes negotiations, Mbappe eventually moved to French’s national football school.

Clairefontaine is France’s national soccer centre. They specialize in training the best kids in the entire country.

Only big football prospects are allowed to play for the Clairefontaine. Kylian Mbappe was one of those.

By learning football there, Kylian became a Hall of Famer. He joined illustrious graduates like Thierry Henry, Nicolas Anelka, Blaise Matuidi, Hatem Ben Arfa and William Gallas.

Putting on a host of impressive performances, big European clubs, namely; Chelsea, Real Madrid, Liverpool, Manchester City and Bayern Munich etc., invited him for trials.

Kylian Mbappe Biography – The Road to Fame Story:

At age 12, the youngster began a journey of meeting the European teams who wanted to test his capabilities. The first bus stop was in England.

Arriving there, Kylian Mbappe’s parents booked an apartment, one where he crested wallpapers of his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo – in his room.

This was how Kylian Mbappe's room looked like as a Child. It appeared he worshipped CR7.

In the Chelsea trail, the enthusiastic kid played alongside England starlets Tammy Abraham and Jeremie Boga (who plays for Atlanta BC in 2023).

After the match that his team won against Charlton (8-0), a happy Kylian went home.

History has it that Mbappe posed with his personalised Chelsea shirt with the mindset that he had won the club’s heart. Unfortunately, Chelsea FC never called him.

This is Kylian Mbappe, with a Chelsea shirt and ID card. This was just after his trials for the club that rejected him.

The Real Madrid Childhood Experience:

After the sad England experience, Kylian Mbappe’s parents then honoured an invitation by Zinedine Zidane to visit Real Madrid.

While there for trials, he got the much-awaited opportunity to visit his one and only idol, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Finally, for the youngster, the big dream to see a player he looked to emulate came to pass. Later on, even CR7 never believed that the little boy he once saw would challenge his dominance in world football.

In fact, Kylian Mbappe’s Champions League Title is one thing left before fans start bringing comparisons between him and CR7.

Kylian Mbappe Biography – The Success Story:

After failed negotiations between European clubs and his parents, the youngster finally settled with Monaco.

With ASM, Kylian Mbappe went from strength to strength, a feat that saw him quickly graduating from their academy to senior football. We got some of his AS Monaco childhood highlights.

 

To the joy of his entire household, Mbappe signed his first professional contract – on the 6th day of March 2016. Sadly, with little game time, the young forward got frustrated.

This heat got settled as his Dad made an outburst. Wilfried issued a strong warning that his son would look for a transfer in the January window if things did not change.

Just after that, Monaco’s manager, Leonardo Jardim, decided to start Kylian against Montpellier.

That game saw Mbappe’s breakthrough as he was heavily involved in the 6-2 demolition of Montpellier.

Since that day, the rising star has not looked back on World soccer. With his 26 goals in the 2016–17 season, Kylian helped Monaco win the Ligue 1 title.

PSG and the 2018 FIFA World Cup:

After announcing his name to the world, a transfer rush followed. This led to a whooping €145 million-plus €35 million (in add-ons) world record transfer paid by Paris Saint-Germain.

At the club, Mbappe met the demands of being the most expensive teenager by helping PSG win a treble, Ligue 1 Player of the Year and top scorer.

In May 2018, Mbappe was called up to join the France squad for the Russia 2018 World Cup.

In a formidable forward partnership with Antoine Griezmann, he became the second teenager, after Pelé, to score in a World Cup Final – helping France win the tournament.

Mbappe’s post-world cup career saw him winning back-to-back league top goalscorer. The forward’s talent and precocious performances for club football have seen him grab plenty of honours at his young age.

More importantly, it is a sign that Kylian Mbappe is destined to take over from Lionel Messi and CR7’s reign as Football GOATs.

At the time of writing his Biography, fans have obliged Kylian to tell the world his objectives and plans as regards a Real Madrid move. Whatever the future turns out to be, the rest, as they say, will always be history.

Why Kylian Mbappe dresses like a Muslim? We have the answer.

Is the Bondy native a Muslim? … Fans have recently asked after seeing photos of Mbappe’s Islamic dress code circulating the internet.

First thing first, Wilfried, his Dad is yet to convert to Islam. More so, Fayze doesn’t answer a Muslim surname.

This implies that the chances of Kylian Mbappe belonging to the religion is less. He is a Christian by faith.

Black Christians in France don’t have much affinity towards Christianity due segregation they face from fellow white Christians. For that, most black citizen loves to wear Islamic attire.

Conclusion:

Thanks for taking all the time to read our concise Biography of Kylian Mbappe. We do hope it has inspired you to believe that it is possible for us to make your own story yourself.

This should come when we put in discipline, self-control and persevere towards career success.

In their words and deeds, it behoves us to commend Wilfried and Fayza Lamari. Kylian Mbappe’s parents made their son discover the meaning of life even before he turned 16.

Despite the circumstances the family faced at Bondy a few years after his birth, they never allow the harsh society of Bondy to rule over their boy’s destiny.

Jires Kembo-Ekoko might not have a better career, he became Kylian’s first idol thanks to the big brother effect. Now, that role has been passed from Kylian to Ethan Adeyemi, whom so much awaits for in future.

Considering that the forward currently do not show a fierce desire to extend his PSG stay, we believe Kylian Mbappe’s future might be far from Paris – leparisien report.

Hi there! I am Hale Hendrix, a passionate football enthusiast and writer dedicated to uncovering the untold stories of footballers' childhood and biography. With a deep love for the beautiful game, I have spent countless hours researching and interviewing players to bring to light the lesser-known details of their lives.

  1. Kylian seems like a very grounded young man with a good head on his shoulders. I’m so glad that his father had the foresight to start training him at the tender age of six. Now all the hard work is paying off!

  2. It’s nice to read such a childhood story. There is a lot to know about these upcoming and great footballers. It was nice reading.

  3. There is always an aspect of working hard to achieve whatever you need . Mbappe is a nice guy and it’s sure he is going far.

  4. Parents play a big role in making sure their kids have achieved their dreams or talents. It’s always good to support our kids.

  5. Wow, everything has a reason. I thought it was just from the air that he celebrated his goals with his arms crossed. It turns out there was a reason behind it.

  6. We pass through a lot before achieving. It’s not easy to reach the top without much dedication of your time. It also takes hard work and passion.

  7. It was great having read such a nice biography of Mbappe. I just saw the article and didn’t hesitate to read it. I have learnt a lot from him.

  8. Like always, it’s important to be patient in whatever you do. Great things happen when you wait. There is no rush. Also, like he said, it’s hardwork that counts. Being active in whatever you do.

  9. There are lots of things that I have read through, which I had never heard. I thought it was just a short story, but turns out there was a lot of things that happened in Mbappe’s life.

  10. Mbappe has a different family life compared to other players. He kind of like his stay at the hostels. Anyway, he has achieved much and still hoping to go far.

  11. Mbappe has a lot in his story. I didn’t know he had met Christiano in his young age. He is good and still we are waiting to see performance from him come next season

  12. This is the best place to read personal life facts of these big and also the upcoming great footballers. I was reading yet another article and it was impressive.

  13. Thumbs up to the parents! Mbappe I love your playstyle, so energetic, you run like a bike, I’m like wow! When I first saw you play, I saw Thierry Henry, I saw Ronaldinho, my football idols. All the best in your football carrier.

    • My thoughts exactly. I really did learn a lot from Mbappe’s biography. Mbappe is my one idol I really look up to and maybe one day I will meet with him as a famous person and reveal my true identity . My greatest regards to our superstar, Kylian Mbappe. WE LOVE YOU !!!! and btw I also speak French .(Mes pensées exactement. J’ai vraiment beaucoup appris de la biographie de Mbappe. Mbappe est ma seule idole que j’admire vraiment et peut-être qu’un jour je le rencontrerai en tant que personne célèbre et révélerai ma véritable identité. Mes plus sincères salutations à notre superstar, Kylian Mbappe. NOUS T’AIMONS !!!! et d’ailleurs je parle aussi français).

  15. very nyc childhood i have learnt alot from him.wishing you all the best as you r progressing with ur career

  16. Primera vez que leo un artículo tan bien detallado ….Explicastes genial,lo que quedé con las dudas es que el hermano adoptivo de Kyky fué adoptado por el padre de Mbappe porque su antiguo padre murió en el 2007 y entonces lo adoptó…..pero a qué edad lo adoptó?? En 2007??

  17. Hola Hale. Primero que todo quiero felicitarte por tu excelente trabajo, más minucioso no podía ser.
    Permíteme decirte que me enamoré del fútbol a la edad de 12 años, hoy con 75 a cuesta la pasión por este deporte se mantiene intacta, hasta el punto que mi esposa me cela, porque dice que quiero más el balompié que a ella. No se lo discuto, porque tiene razón.

    Esa pasión me llevó a estudiar periodismo deportivo y me he pasado la vida escribiendo, hablando y narrando; creo que moriré de esta “Dulce Enfermedad” que gracias a Dios, no tiene cura.

    Soy venezolano y actualmente vivo en Loganville, Georgia USA, en donde me dedico a escribir sobre fútbol. Lo último que escribí fue la historia de” EEUU en Los Mundiales de Fútbol” y “Botas de Oro en los Mundiales de Fútbol” mini biografías de cada uno de los goleadores en cada Mundial; libros que están disponibles en Amazon.

    Obviamente para escribir las biografías tengo que consultar lo escrito por diversas fuentes, a los cuales le reconozco sus créditos en las publicaciones, como establece el código de ética, por lo que dado lo “sustancioso” de tu trabajo – y espero que no te moleste- incluiré algunos pasajes del mismo en la actualización que haré de “Los Botines de Oro” próximamente.

    Roger Perozo Reyes.
