Mbappe acquires a French club
Kylian Mbappé's move to acquire a major stake in Stade Malherbe de Caen marks a significant development in his career, both as a player and as a sports entrepreneur. According to a report from Le Parisien, Mbappé will become the club's 80% majority shareholder through his self-founded investment fund Coalition Capital. The acquisition, estimated at around €15 million, reflects Mbappé's desire to invest more in football, specifically in Cannes, which he came close to joining when he was 13 years old before opting to sign for Monaco in 2013. The move is part of Mbappé's vision to develop French football and support emerging teams, and could help Cannes strengthen their position in Ligue 2 and possibly facilitate their promotion to the top flight in the future.
