According to the caption on the video, the Frenchman’s visit is not only about showing support for the sailing team, but also involves his Inspired by KM foundation, which is a charitable partner of SailGP.

It is reported that children supported by Mbappé’s foundation will be traveling to New York alongside the sailing team. Their mentor for this journey will be French yachtsman Quentin Delapierre, who attended Mbappé’s meeting with the youngsters at the Molitor Paris hotel.

The New York SailGP Grand Prix is scheduled to take place from June 3 to June 8.

It is worth recalling that in April, Mbappé acquired a stake in the French SailGP Team and became the team’s official charity partner. SailGP Team is one of 12 national squads competing in the global sailing league.

In addition to these ventures, among Mbappé’s other assets is the French football club Caen, which was relegated to the French Third Division this season.
