World's Hottest Footballer, Kylian Mbappe Is Actually From Nigeria, His Middle Name Is Adesanmi

Monaco striker Kylian Mbappe has attracted some of the biggest sides in world football in the last few weeks, making the 18-year-old football’s most courted teenager.



 The striker took Europe by storm last season, scoring 26 goals in all competitions in his first full season at senior club level. Mbappe is one of the most sought after players in the summer transfer market in  Europe. Reports on Tuesday claimed that Real Madrid has agreed to sign the teenager for £161m

 While close followers of the emerging striker acknowledge his ability to carve out goals, not much of these people know that the hugely talented player has Nigerian roots, as a recent research by The PUNCH has shown.



 Kylian’s father, Wilfred Mbappe, who has Cameroonian and Nigerian roots, was once a refuge, who migrated to France for greener pastures. According to reports, Wilfred in a bid to get a permanent stay got married to an Algerian-French lady Fayza, an ex-handball player.
 Kylian was given a Yoruba middle name Adesanmi meaning “crown fits me” by Wilfred, who also adopted a son, Jirès Kembo Ekoko, a professional footballer of Congolese descent, but has a biological son and younger brother of Kylian named Adeyemi Mbappe, in recognition of his Nigerian roots.
 Adeyemi is a Yoruba name meaning “the crown befits you.” Indeed, Adeyemi is the reason why Kylian celebrates his goals by posing with his arms crossed and thumbs up.
 “This is how my younger brother celebrated when he beat me in the FIFA  video game,”
said Mbappe.



 Wilfried works as a coach at AS Bondy and he started training Kylian at the age of six. He also spends time coaching Adeyemi, while he is currently his Kylian’s agent. Meanwhile, the Monaco star has also been linked as a grandson of Cameroonian midfield legend Samuel Mbappe Leppe. But findings by a correspondent has shown  that the late Leppe, who played for Oryx Douala in the 1950s and 1960s, winning five leagues and three Cup title (1963, 1968 and 1970) and was the first captain to lift the African Champions Clubs’ Cup in the 1964/65 season, may not have any biological links with Kylian.

I still think REAL MADRID are CRAZY by wanting to SPLASH 180 Million Euros on this guy....! He's great talent, no doubt but he's certainly not worth that staggering amount of money, cause I wonder how much MESSI, NEYMAR & C.RONALDO would cost and these are PROVEN players over the years... Anyway, no be my papa money...

Hmmmm.... Your point doesn't hold water bros.. PAUL POGBA is black and according to football pundits, Manchester United paid a total of 142 million Euros to get him i.e Agent fee included (Mino Raiola his agent) another example LUKAKU is black and Manchester United splashed 84 Million Euros on him too minus agent fees... This are proven players over the years though I still believed Manchester United were robbed in broad day light to have acquired LUKAKU for that much, but then I wonder how Mbappe is worth 180 million Euros? Because he's 18 and has height, speed & shot accuracy? Yes he's a prolific striker but then the FRENCH LEAGUE is totally different from the SPANISH LEAGUE Mbappe played 29 Ligue 1 games, 9 champions league games, 2 WC qualifiers and 2 friendlies and did a total of 26 goals i.e 42 games played and 26 goals scored, so how does that justify his PRICE TAG?  Like I said anyway, no be my papa money so PEREZ can spend, they have the money.... Mbappe needs one more season to JUSTIFY that heavy price tag... IMHO...

And That Name Which His Father Gave Him Is Leading Him On.It's Simply Good To Give One's Children Great Names That Embody Good Wishes.Too Hopeful That One Of My Sons Would Be A Footballer Like Mbape.Hopeful And Not Hopeless.
