We know a lot about Fayza Lamari, the mother of Real Madrid striker Kylian Mbappe. She manages all his affairs and represents the French footballer as his agent. Kylian's father has often remained in the shadows.
Lent.az reports that Wilfrid Mbappe gave an interview to France's Canal+ channel, explaining that he does not agree with the term "Mbappe project." Kylian's father emphasized that his son wants to be the best at what he does, and that's why everything turns out well. However, his parents simply created a positive atmosphere in the family.
"The Mbappé project – what does 'Mbappe project' mean? It's a father who supports his son in his dreams, his activities, his profession, but we all do that. So we all have an Mbappé project.
Because the Mbappé project is exactly that, nothing else. I didn't choose it for him. He's right, I didn't wake him up at six in the morning to go to practice, I didn't give him extra lessons, I didn't do any of that. Sometimes I come across parents on the fields who say to me, 'Yes, I do the same as you.' They whistle and run around the fields in jeans, they squat, they kick the ball. But I didn't do any of that, what kind of myth is that?
I have supported him as a father. At first everything was fun, a bit of a distraction, but when things get serious, you add other things. After all, your son is going to make this his profession, so you sit down with him and ask questions. If he tells you, 'I'm going to be the best,' you have to do certain things to get there.
Not everyone is created to be the best, not everyone can withstand everything that comes their way. When I see him today, I stand up and respect him, because he has experienced so much that I don't even know if I could have handled it.
Every day, 24 hours a day, every hour, every second, everyone talks about him. Who could be ready for that? No one. I hear people say, 'He's programmed.' Why? I can't understand. How could that happen? No, all this only happened because of the strength of his character. Of course, his mother and I passed on certain things to him, also with the education and love that we passed on. But this is also his strength. We have always created a calm atmosphere around him. Even when faced with failures, we were there for him.
"For me, this is a game, a sport, nothing else. Nowadays, many people turn football into something exceptional. It has already become the most important thing in the world. Everyone expresses their opinion, it's on all the front pages. But for me, it's just a sport and a game."
