The Blues are preparing to play the quarter-finals of the World Cup against Morocco and their course allows them to already earn a nice jackpot. But Kylian Mbappé will not benefit from this money. Explanations.
This Thursday, July 9, the French team will face Morocco in the quarter-finals which promise to be tense. Kylian Mbappé, who was violently insulted by a senator from Paraguay, will even find his former sidekick, PSG defender Achraf Hakimi, who will play in the opposing team.
Kylian Mbappé wins “a lot of money” but will not receive anything for the World Cup
On the stock market side, this course is already profitable for the Blues. And for good reason, a team qualified for the round of 16 automatically pockets an allocation of nearly 13.5 million euros. Once qualified for the round of 16, she receives an additional 4 million euros. Obviously, the more said team advances in the competition, the more money it receives. And for the players too, this global competition is a real gold mine.
In addition to their possible advertising contracts, they all receive bonuses from Fifa. In the event that Didier Deschamps’ team was eliminated this Thursday evening, each player would win 280,000 euros. And if they emerge victorious from this World Cup, their individual bonus could exceed 500,000 euros!
A hell of a sum that Kylian Mbappé should not receive again this year. Since 2018, number 10 has imposed a strict line of conduct: donating all of its bonuses to an association. At the time of the Blues’ victory in the World Cup final in 2018, the genius of Bondy had entrusted the Time “don’t need it”. And it’s up to him to explain that he didn’t have “no need to be paid to defend the country’s colors”.
Before detailing: “I earn enough money, a lot of money. So I think it’s important to help those who are in need. Many people suffer, have illnesses. For people like us, giving a helping hand isn’t much. It doesn’t change my life but it changes theirs. And if that’s the case, I do it with pleasure”.
Kylian Mbappé: this association to which he gives “millions”
It is to an association which helps sick or disabled children to play sport that the captain of the Blues donates his bonuses: “I gave this money to the association of which I am the sponsor (Premiers de cordée, editor’s note) because being disabled is something difficult. Showing them that they can do sport like anyone else is very close to my heart”.
In 2020, the man who now plays for Real Madrid founded an association with his mother, Fayza Lamari. Inspired by Kylian Mbappé aims to help children around the world achieve their professional dreams. And who better to fund the coffers of this association than Kylian Mbappé himself?
In 2024, the show Special Envoy revealed the player’s rather discreet charitable actions. After negotiation with his mother, president of IBKM and formidable businesswoman, the former PSG pledged to donate 30% of the profits from his various companies to the association. A sum which represents “millions” according to his mother.
