- From private meetings with Emmanuel Macron, the president of France, to serving as the face of Paris Saint-Germain, a club owned by the state of Qatar, Mbappé's journey as a footballer up until now has been deeply intertwined with politics. This video essay breaks down all these political dynamics, examining how they've have shaped Mbappé's career thus far and questioning whether the footballer is a pawn or player in this game of politics.

What do you make of Macron’s influence on Mbappé’s career choices? 🤔
Macron did what was right for France. Mbappe got rich too. So its a win win
i hope mbappe is a billion as a result of this juss to show this life no balance
Agreed a win win for France and mbappe, he almost brought 2 world cups for France and him being bigger than his club is something he couldn’t control by being in a farmers league. Now that he’s got the chance to join Real Madrid to soon become galácticos 2.0, it’s a beautiful start to a career
Mbappe has goat level potential and France is not even a super team like some people say. But Madrid is. Mbappe will reach incredible heights
Love your videos!💚
BREAKING NEWS: Macron announces Mbappé will become President of France if he stays at PSG
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Good.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
I understand why Macron did what he did to encourage Mbappe to stay at PSG, but so strange to think that the president of a big european nation got personally involved to stop an athlete from changing clubs. Influence of biggest sport celebrities is so enormous these days.
Because he knows, No Mbappe Less people to watch Ligue 1 thus leading to no Fans attending and it will affect France's Economics since like 20-40% Taxes comes from Football
kickbacks perhaps?
It’s always been enormous
@@TheChad..1what? That's too high lol
Like they say sports are to detract people of what’s going on in politics, give them a circus and they’ll never revolt
Oh Kylian, you were there when your government needed you, but they will NEVER be there when you’ll need them.
And what is he going to need the government for? What does that even mean? And how is he there for them? He's being rewarded handsomely.
This is a cry of a helpless peasant 😂😂😂 there’s a huge difference between you and mbappe and why he’s rewarded handsomely and you’re not😂😂
you think it's a one way street? That mbappe doesn't receive benefits for staying?
Kylian has everything in the football world EXCEPT a Champions league and ballon dors, and staying in paris will not get him any closer to those achievement espicially The ballon Dors.
Im pretty sure that ALL he cares about at the moment, are his individual accomplishements in the footbal world not some indirect geo political bullshit.
@@ARYANTIWARI.. (irrelevant comment)
Reality is that no one is going to look at France or PSG if Mbappe is to leave.
Paris, France and Qatar knows that. But then also Madrid knows that, that’s why they want to so bad regardless of the rejection.
Madrid are just a bunch of nutters that want to dominate everything but are hypocrites who bombarded Mbappe when he refused to move in 2021 and today they’re still after him like leprechauns and I can never respect Perez who bought Raul and Casillas and like a coward called them frauds 15 years later even though they made Real Madrid the club it is today instead of fading into a same PSG star studded squad that are just chronicle failures fate but I guess who am I?
We're talking about PSG, who could sign a 300 million contract to bring in Halland, as they have already done for Messi, Neymar and Mbappe.
@@jordannzoldick8312Mci has more money than PSG, if you want money go to Saudi Arabia league.
@@SevynHenrique
going to Saudi Arabia for a superstar means the end of your career whereas at PSG you can always hope to win UCL, Mbappe's salary is higher than KDB+Halland, MCI won't be able to match the salary offered by PSG to replace Mbappe.
@@jordannzoldick8312 some players don’t want money, they want trophies, Mbappe never going to win a champions league if he stay on PSG, and he knows that, La Liga and premier league are the best options now.
This video is curated and explained so well
Thank you! 🙏🏽
I like your videos and your smile 😊
I agree. It's perfect.
Yes Sir ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿🔥🔥🔥
*information is this video is well curated.
Your pronounciation of French words and names is perfect.
Maybe because he is french?😅
I find French to be cringe. I can't stand it
@@omega0195 That's okay, i respect that. Everyone has different preferences.
@@omega0195only because you can’t speak it
@@omega0195You spoke French to a mirror?
if i was Mbappé, I’d be like LeBron, leave to Real Madrid to win the UCL then return to PSG to finish the job
Totally different situations, LeBron never had the help in Cleveland like Kylian had in PSG
@@realjaysevenhe will improve and reach new heights in rm then come back to Paris
Dont ever compare leclown to Football ever again
@@clarkesmith.its the same though? Ucl is the worlds best teams NBA playoffs is the worlds best teams.
True but Lebron in Cleveland would be like Mbappe playing for Lille, Aston Villa, Getafe or Atalanta, things like that almost never happen in football because when you reach Top level like Mbappe, all the big rich clubs will do everything to get you and there is no trade in football, so if the player come from a small and not super rich club like Monaco (Mbappe first pro team when he was 16-17), then a big club like PSG can just say i give you 180Millions $ for Mbappe and no small club with small budget will ever refuse that … If Lebron played Football he would have been in Real Madrid or City by age 20 at most, except if he was already on one of these big rich teams.
If Mbappe leaves for Real Madrid, in a few years he´ll be accused of tax fraud (or something similar) by the French government. Mark my words
Actually, it's more likely that he would go on to actually commit tax fraud in Spain. Just look at Messi and Ronaldo 😂
The quality of these videos are so good
Thank you! 😁 This one was particularly tricky editing wise!
Fr man, it's legit breathtaking.
@@watchalexandergotta admit, it’s elite stuff. We need more more more.
He might have felt miserable because of the Ligue 1 situation that was hopeless at winning 1% of the Champions League matches and also showed as somewhat behind compared to other European League(Bundesliga, EPL, La Liga). For 70 years, all of the winning clubs in the Champions League were England, Spain, Germany, Italia, Nederlands, and only Olympique de Marseille has won among France. Although interrupting Mbappé's Career, it could be matters crack national pride from the French leadership view if he leaves for Real Madrid. Whichever he chooses, he will never get treated like his current location if he leaves for Real Madrid.
Absolutely agree with this comment! Although I do think Mbappé has a little bit of an ego and money plays a large part in his decision making, I still do believe he’s 1. Smart and in control, and 2. A patriot of his country. If he didn’t care about his nation and bringing pride to it, Macron’s patriotic pleas would have fell on deaf ears. Both he and the president put large importance on the success of French football at large.
It's selfish on Macron's part. If you love a player send him to a stronger league so that when he plays for France he will be even greater...but no, it's about money and ego. I hope Mbappe is smarter and his Dad helps him "Get Out"
@@martymarl4602Macron doesn't necessarily like Mbappe, he wants him to play a french club, so that France can still have a competive footbalelr and League for their nation.
@@amhumanperson3592 Nevermind like. He appears to be in love with Mbappe...it's uncomfortable how he looks at him..lol
Is sad for the sport he is 25y and still playing in that league
Great video.
The great irony about Macron pushing for Mbappe to stay at PSG is that Macron has stated on multiple occasions that he's a Marseille fan, and Marseille is the rival of PSG.
He's a money fan
Mate there is no competition to your channel bcus
You are in a class by yourself. 100% great video clarification.
As a Frenchman we salute this channel
Thank you so much 😁 more to come!
Toujours gênant les francais
@@lawtraf8008 c'est une dinguerie mddr
@@lawtraf8008 Qui est gênant au final. Un simple mec qui écrit un message d'encouragement ou le tocard qui trouve ça gênant alors qu'il n'y a rien ?
France's insistence on Mbappe playing in Uber Eats, reminds me of Pele's failed transfer to Real Madrid, when Brazil refused the transfer, citing that Pele is a national treasure. Mbappe will finally choose his career over monetary gain, and complete the overdue transfer to the biggest club to ever exist. He will finally win the Ballon D'or, the champions league, and maybe another World Cup, cementing his name amongst the greatest to ever do it.
This channel has crazy potential. The quality of the video and the football topics that are discussed are so good. We need more bro!
Thank you so much! Cant wait to put out more! 😁
You just earned a subscriber my guy. I don't comment on videos often but I gotta say...the quality of this material is incredible! The investigation that was made behind this is top tier work. Keep it going!
What a compliment, thank you so much! 🙏🏽
kylian mbappé is one of my favorite football players for his intelligence off and on the field. You can tell he desires to be the best again and again. No matter how much patriotism or power he has in PSG im sure he knows that to he needs new challenges that RM can provide to continue to grow as player.
Actually it’s the exact opposite.
If he wanted greatness he would be quick to move to Madrid.
He’s just milking PSG as much as possible.
He is a great footballer thats for sure but the drama around him is too much. I hope RM will go for other targets
How come he can’t do a free kick?
@@joeymontanaaReal Madrid got destroyed by Man City 4-0 and got outplayed by Leipzig in both legs and should’ve been eliminated in the round of 16. Man City is objectively the best team in the world right now.
@@Oceanrocks121the best doesn t mean the biggest...you talk about football you talk about Real Madrid, whether your deluded ass likes it or not
a really good video, resembling wonderfully a documentary; you speak and research as a journalist, a genuine one and not as someone whole seeks for transfer roumors and of the kind. Keep the good work up
Thank you for this comment. And I will! 😁🙏🏽
This man is SO underrated!
subscribing just because of that clicking sound you add when displaying words. 10/10 production overall
I find it quite annoying personally
really enjoy your explainers and how well-made these videos are!! the intersection of politics, sports, and society is literally a venn diagram and kylian mbappe's ever burgeoning career is a prime example of that. i do hope he gets to do what he truly wants with his career this time around. surely the football world at large can't let a once in a lifetime player like that fall out of love with the sport or have him play less when he's a joy to watch more often than not (given recent games where he's sent off at half time lol) because of outside pressure and world leaders using him as a pawn. i do remember a video from late last year where he was asked what kind of influence does macron have on his career at this moment and he said "none". hopefully that's true but we'll see how it goes i guess!!
These video essays keep getting better. Keep it up Alex!
Thank you, and will do! 🙏🏽😌
First video after stumbling across your channel. Very well put together and articulated. Looking forward to see more

Amazing video, you have earned my Subscription. i would recommend lowing the music volume so i can pay attention to what you are saying more, would be my only critique!

The amount of pressure he must be facing crazy

This channel is going to blow up.

As a French, this video has a lot of quality ! Good job mate
Great video as always
Thank you! 🙏🏽
After watching all of your video, I realized one thing for sure, is that you are very good with French speaking my friend, I like it a lot every time you speak it, (although I dont understand lol). Keep it up!
Excellent video, you've got yourself a new subscriber
Thank you! 😁🙏🏽
As a PSG fan, I was thinking exactly this. I only heard of Macron twice....coincidentally both were involved meeting Mbappe at a time when Mbappe was considering leaving France. I want Mbappe to stay. But he should have enough awareness to know that sports and politics don't mix.
Secondly, this is a beautifully made video. More importantly, it was objective and didn't show favortism towards PSG or any club Mbappe is considering. Its hard to find objective personalities in football, but you seem to have it.
Mbappé influence is not to be underestimated, if all of this is happening when he is in PSG…..what will happen when he go to Madrid????
The merging of Big player and big club at this level…..I can only fantasise.
You will blow up. Quality very good
Thank you! 🙏🏽
you make great videos lad!
Off topic from the video, I’ve spent the last hour binging your videos, and I gotta say, the way you edit, present and voice your videos make for a really good watch. Keep it up!
Thank you so much! And will do. 😁
using hijacked for a video that is 9 minutes; 11 seconds is a nice touch lol (love the video btw)
Crazy observation mate 👏😂
But the video is 9:10 minutes long😅
@SaadKhan-ii8ml that one second sometimes shows up and sometimes doesnt
I want this dude to start making football documentaries he's too good
Great breakdown on how KM footballing and political connections are connected.
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Fantastic short documentary.

Great video! Subscribed!

you're doing a great work man. keep it up bro... u just earned another subscriber. Very informative ❤

Wow your video was great and your French pronunciations were delightful. If you don't mind disclosing, how have you acquired such skills?
great video🤙🏾
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Great work do keep it up
Thank you! 🙏🏽
This is really, really good content.
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Brilliant video mate loved it. Mbappe really can't think of staying in paris if he wants to compete with haaland.Hoping for more such videos. A new subscriber here!
Greatly edited & concise video 🙌
Thank you! ☺️
I think Mbappe leaving to Real Madrid will ultimately be better for the French national team. Playing in Real Madrid, he will gain more skills and be able to have more challenging competition which he can then translate to when he plays with the French national team. Mbappe is already very skilled and he plays in a pretty decent league with decent competition but I think if he goes to a league that has the best competition in the world then I think Mbappe can become the best footballer without a doubt.
This gonna blow up more than the rich people luxury video
Fingers crossed 🤞🏽 thank you!
Editing is amazing in your video 👍🏼👍🏼 the cut scenes, sound effects B-roll is next level !!!
Thank you so much! 🙏🏽😁
IVE BEEN SAYING THIS EVER SINCE HE WON THE WORLD CUP! Mbappé is an amazing footballer who wanted to move to real Madrid something he himself saud is hes dream move but ever since he got "goodie" with macron things have not been right. Him doing the things he said he wouldn't like or care for he's doing but not because he wants to but he's being guilted by macron and the qutari investor(s). "He thinks hes bigger than the club", "Why is he the front man", "Why does he get special treatment", its because he's a bloody pawn in a ruthless game of politics. If they say jump, mbappé will say how high.
Macron doesn’t know ball. If mBappe leaves for the world, he can achieve more as a French player and win ballon d’ors!
He will always be in Harland’s shadow
@@Cleon851 mbapppe is more famous and arguably better lol
@@Cleon851Keep lying to yourself 😂
very intellectual display of ideas alex
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Did I just stumble upon an underrated channel with future blooming and with more trophies than Tottenham. I think Yes, Great Vid My friend.
😂 Thank you mate
People keep saying Mbape joining Madrid will destabilize the flow of the game especially for Vinicius Junior, but this people fail to understand how much money Mbape will yield for Madrid.
This channel is so good ur gonna blow up keep up the good work 👍👏
Thank you so much, and will do! 🙏🏽😁
Only video that actually gives plausible reasons as to why Mbappé might stay in PSG
Terrific video keep your style going
Thank you, will do! 🙏🏽😁
Great video!!
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Stumbled on your channel and I gotta say, I'm loving it! Feels like I found a hidden gem that's soon to be a household name! Your stuff on Football is awesome, but I can see a broader space for you covering anything with your level of production.
Keep up the awesome work! Can't wait to see what you do next.
Thank you so much for this comment! 🙏🏽 I can’t wait for you to see the next video. 😁
Keep it up 🎉
great vid
In other words, the most or second most powerful Europian nations president involves in sports just to tackle a businessman in Spain which is crazy
How the f do you only have 23k subs? You should make videos more often.
Mbappe is the most influential image in football government history
Pele

He’s dead
I love how you make sure your pronunciations are on point, even the name of the Sheikh!! 0:12
Hey, if you don’t mind me asking, how do you make these kinds of videos, I’m extremely passionate about video essays, especially about football, you’re channel inspires me to want to start making the same kind of videos, and tbh I have the writing/research skills, but I don’t have any talent in editing and voice recording stuff. Thanks a lot and keep up the great work
GREAT video. Finally TH-cam is recommending some well done videos again. Thank you. It's very well written. Hope you didn't use AI, but I don't think you did. Great job
Thank you so much! 😁 And no AI, I research, edit, and produce all my videos independently.
Really good video
Thank you! 😁
What a great video
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Great video. What is the first piece of classical music?

What is the strings piece at the opening? It's beautiful!
Your french pronunciation is solid for an englishman! Beau travail!
Very good video, I appreciate how this man took no sides and decided just to speak about facts.
what's the title of the classical piece at the beginning of the video?
its a lot of pressure for one man. i understand why he was torn but ultimately he needs to do what's best for his future.
if he was focused on winning more he wud have left for madrid 2 years ago but chose to milk psg for massive money then leave for free to madrid 2 years later 😂
@@plopplop1984Haha, but he made a lot of money that Madrid can never pay him 😂 I will do same if I was Mbappé. He's only 25 years, Cristanio Ronaldo went to Madrid at 24. So it's not too late
One thing is for sure, prince Mbappé won’t be bigger than Real Madrid when he will be there
Macron might threat perez to give mbappe the keys
excellent journalism
Thank you 🙏🏽
Thank you 🙏🏽
This is your sign to keep making football videos brother 🤌🏽
🙏🏽🤍
what was your editing experience before this channel? Or how did you learn if ou edit them yourself the quality is insane for such a new channel
Thank you so much! 😁 I’ve been editing for fun for around 3 years now, but this channel is the first time I’ve done long video essay editing!
I think politics also kinda ruined pele's career + eusebio, mbappe is like one of the generational players youve ever seen in your life like lionel messi, but unlike lionel messi argentina given freedom for him to play outside of argentina and reach his potential
Argentina never had the money to afford him
@@JuanMorales-hy2ltyh but imagining if Argentina forced messi to play in Argentina league
