Kylian Mbappe Receives Surprise Collaboration Offer From 3x NBA All-Star- “I’d Love Us To Do Things Together”

On the back of his stellar shows on the soccer field, Kylian Mbappe, 24, has established himself as a superstar transcending the sport. From signing lucrative endorsements to crossing paths with elite athletes outside of soccer, Mbappe has been living a king-sized life.

Now, yet another NBA star wants to come together with Kylian Mbappe, offering a surprise collaboration for a noble cause.

Sporting icons seldom shy away from acting for the greater good. Such campaigns become all the more important and exciting when talents from two different sports merge. Turns out, the sporting world might witness a stunning collaboration of three-time NBA All-Star Rudy Gobert and PSG’s Kylian Mbappe.
