• Kylian Mbappe has partnered with major German luggage brand Rimowa
• The PSG star joins sports celebrities like Lewis Hamilton for the campaign
• Mbappe decided to remain with PSG this summer after a transfer standoff

Kylian Mbappe has made the decision to team up with the well-known German luxury label, Rimowa, as the Paris Saint-Germain star’s influence continues to grow outside the football pitch.

Mbappe was in a transfer standoff with PSG all summer, which led to the French club relegating him to the reserves before reinstating him after he refused to back down on his decision to not renew his contract.

According to Essentially Sport, Mbappe will now appear in Rimowa’s advertising campaign alongside Formula One legend, Lewis Hamilton and Rosé from South Korean girl group, Blackpink.

The ad campaign by the German luggage brand was launched on September 7, under the music direction of Oscar winner, Hans Zimmer.
