- Kylian Mbappe’s mother has been playing hardball with her son over his finances
- Fayza Lamari is also his agent and is known for her tough approach to business

Kylian Mbappe‘s mother is well known for playing hardball when it comes to business but it seems she has also been tough on her son too.
Fayza Lamari is not only the Paris Saint-Germain superstar’s mum, but she is also his agent. And it has been revealed by Le Parisien that she claimed she would ‘retire’ and ‘go on vacation to the Maldives’ if the 25-year-old committed more than 30 per cent of the profits generated by his various companies to his ‘Inspired by KM’ association.
Mbappe, who according to Forbes has pocketed a fortune of £94million during his career through endorsements and his salary, is well known for his generosity.
Back in 2018, he reportedly donated his entire 2018 World Cup wage (£380,000) to charity.

It would see the end of a long transfer saga between the two clubs that has seen Mbappe reportedly fall out with the Ligue 1 champions, while Los Blancos have tried to coax the star winger to leave the club on several occasions.

The charity has four ‘fundamental values’ to help children ‘learn, understand, share and pass on.’
It sponsors 49 boys and 49 girls between ages nine and 16 who Mbappe claims, ‘will be supported until their working lives begin.’
