The Frenchman is one of the hottest players in the world at the moment, with European elites vying to land his signatures.

However, it seems like the player knows when to pull himself off the game to give himself a much-needed break.

Mbappe, in an interview with GQ, stated, “It’s all this invisible work that allows you to have a series of meetings and come back more easily from a possible injury. I have a well-equipped gym at home, but I prefer to spend as much time as possible at the training center and do everything I need to do there, even if it means staying late.”

The Frenchman then added that he likes to find a balance between the club and his family life. He continued, “Recovery is also mental. The club is work, and at home, it’s a chill space where I’m more relaxed and where I spend time with my family who I don’t see much.”
