The new Real Madrid signing does not yet have a license, but this has not prevented him from hoarding a garage of great value
Kylian Mbappe, was presented yesterday as a new Real Madrid player, the striker of the French national team is already in the capital, but unlike the vast majority of his teammates, the no.9 does not have a driver’s license.
Los Blancos has an agreement with BMW, but its new star will not be able to drive any of the German brand’s models.
The player, who comes from Paris Saint-Germain, turned 25 years old last November 20, and could have had his driver’s license for six years, since in France, as in Spain, it can be acquired from the age of 18. This fact has not been an impediment for him to hoard several luxury cars in his garage.
An unusual case
If something is normal for soccer players at the highest level, it is to see them riding in a luxurious sports car arriving to training or to some matches. Many of them show off their cars and show off large collections declaring themselves to be motor enthusiasts. Some of them have even been in trouble for driving them over the speed limits.
In the case of Real Madrid’s new striker, we will not see him, at least in the short term, at the controls of one of his sports cars. Since his arrival at PSG, the Parisian club provided him with a chauffeur to take him wherever he wanted to go, and this has been the case to this day. This driver is the person who enjoys the luxurious cars of the World champion.
Mbappe thus becomes a special case in the world of soccer, as fewer and fewer players do not have their driver’s license. “For many people it is an obligation, but it was not for me, it has never been a priority,” confessed the Frenchman in an interview. He claims that this is one of the clear disadvantages of his success at such a young age.
Kylian’s collection
As confirmed by several French media, one of the most special models that the player has in his possession and that he will have to bring to the Spanish capital is the Ferrari 488 Pista. This is a limited edition of the Italian brand that only went on sale to special customers and its price is around half a million dollars. This model of the Prancing Horse brand has a power of 720 hp, is capable of exceeding 340 km / h and goes from 0 to 100 in just 2.85 seconds.
From France they confirm that another of the most exclusive models in Mbappe’s garage, is another of the Italian brand, this time the Ferrari 458. This model is priced at about $300,000, and what makes it special, is that in its design participated the legend of Formula 1, Michael Schumacher.
The same sources of information, name some other models that the Parisian has under his possession. And the fact is that the striker not only owns cars of the Maranello brand, because another brand that has several more familiar models is Volkswagen. This is one of the sponsors of the French national team, and the Real Madrid signing has been seen getting out of several cars of this brand. Away from the sports cars, the Frenchman also has a Mercedes V-Class.
All of these luxurious cars, Kylian never enjoys them all from the driver’s seat, but in the passenger seat or in the back seats, while his private chauffeur drives.
Once the dream of signing for Real Madrid is fulfilled, the next goal of the no.9 could be the driving license to drive the prized cars in his collection.
