Kylian Mbappe and his family are reportedly in 'advanced talks' regarding the potential takeover of a club he nearly joined in 2013.

To celebrate his arrival, a catwalk will be constructed from the Bernabeu locker room to a massive stage, where more than 80,000 fans will enjoy fire effects, live music, and a spectacular fireworks display.
Off the pitch, Mbappe and his family are reportedly negotiating to invest in Ligue 2 side Stade Malherbe Caen, according to French outlet Ouest-France.
Caen are seeking new investors after American asset management firm Oaktree Capital Management announced its intention to withdraw from the club’s ownership.
Mbappe’s family business, which is heavily managed by his mother, Fayza Lamari, is interested in acquiring a majority stake in Caen, per GFFN.
Back in 2013, Mbappe was on the verge of joining Caen, but the deal fell through when the club was relegated from Ligue 1, leading him to join AS Monaco instead.
