Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappé attended a meeting with fans of Caen, a club playing in France’s Ligue 2, as reported on the club’s official social media pages. The forward purchased a stake in the club last summer and is now trying to support the team, which is on the verge of relegation to the Third Division.
Frustrated by the team’s poor results, Caen supporters have expressed their dissatisfaction with the club’s management, even staging protests during matches. In response, Mbappé decided to travel to France to show solidarity with the team.
During the meeting, Kylian took photos with fans and signed autographs for everyone who wanted one.
"It's important for me to be here. I want to show my support, to be in contact with everyone and for them to know that they count on me, and especially in the situation we're in. If I'm here it's because I believe in the project. I wanted to have come earlier but it was impossible. I told them that I was with them and that they had to believe. And I saw a group that is not resigned and wants to change the results," Mbappé stated.
