Kylian Mbappe: PSG forward reveals travel playlist featuring Nigerian super star’s hit

Kylian Mbappe is known as a prolific goal scorer with a bright future and has been tipped to win the Ballon d’Or award someday

Paris Saint-Germain and French national team star, Kylian Mbappe, known for his passion for music, recently shared his travel playlist on a popular music streaming platform,Soccernet.ng reports.

Mbappe, recognized as one of the world’s finest footballers and a major footballing personality, has frequently made headlines regarding his future in the sport.

Despite being only 24 years old, he leads both his club and the national team, showcasing his remarkable influence on these squads, even in the presence of seasoned players.

During the summer transfer window, PSG was embroiled in a transfer saga concerning Mbappe.

The club firmly adhered to a “sign or be sold” policy, leading to a high-stakes standoff.

Ultimately, Mbappe turned down a world-record transfer offer from Al-Hilal, reported to be worth a staggering $776 million, as revealed by Bleacher Report.

Like many footballers, Mbappe is often spotted wearing AirPods while traveling for club and international assignments.

And in a quote revealed by French media outlet,  GQ France, he unveiled the diverse songs on his travel playlist.

One notable inclusion in his 16-track selection is “Last Last,” a global hit by Nigerian artist Burna Boy. This track, featured in Burna Boy’s 2022 album “Love Damini,” notably pays tribute to Mbappe himself.

Mbappe is currently in contention for the 2023 Ballon d’Or award and is widely expected to secure a place on the podium alongside football luminaries Lionel Messi and Erling Haaland. Intriguingly, he opted not to include a song titled “Ballon d’Or” by the same artist on his playlist.
