Kylian Mbappé cannot lead a classic life. Many footballers would not wish to be in his place, despite his superstar status.

Even if he remains extremely discreet regarding his private life, part of it manages to be revealed by the media. Kylian Mbappé saw this to his cost, particularly last month, when his nighttime trip to Sweden made headlines.

The actions of the Real Madrid striker are constantly monitored, even outside of his professional activity. Dominique Rocheteau would not like to be in his place. “There, I’m going to act a bit like a veteran, but honestly no. I wouldn’t like it. I don’t want to compare myself to Mbappé, he’s an extraordinary player, but I wouldn’t like to have the life he has, from what I see from the outside.”recognized the former PSG striker during an interview given to RMC Sport.

Mbappé, his life is no longer envied

And the former center forward remembers: “In my time, football was less publicized than it is now. But it was still publicized, there were the World Cups, we were quite recognized, it was the number 1 sport. But I still had a normal life, a normal youth. I went to see concerts, I had friends who weren’t into football. And as soon as I had the opportunity, I could go abroad.”

During the last gathering of the France team, Ibrahima Konaté gave practically the same speech. “Mbappé today, the place he has in this world is exceptional. I often tell him: ‘I want your level of football, but I don’t want your life’.”confided the Liverpool player at a press conference.
