Kylian Mbappe likes to enjoy music while travelling for games or on personal trips and has revealed his travel playlist on a music streaming platform.
Mbappe is one of the best footballers in the world and, without a doubt, one of the biggest football brands, who has been generating headlines in the past years over his future.
The Paris Saint-Germain and France international captains both club and country at 24, a testament to his influence on both teams despite having senior players in the group.
In the summer, he was embroiled in a transfer battle over his future with PSG. The club insisted on sign or be sold policy, but the issue was resolved after he turned down a world-record move to Al-Hilal, worth $776 million, as reported by Bleacher Report.
Mbappe includes Burna Boy's song in playlist
The 24-year-old like most footballers has been spotted having his ears plugged with AirPods on flights for both club and national team assignments.
In an interview with GQ France, he has opened up on the songs in his travel playlist.
Included in the 16-track playlist is Nigerian artiste Burna Boy's global hit song - Last Last, off his 2022 album - Love Damini, which pays tribute to himself.
Mbappe is nominated for the 2023 Ballon d'Or and is expected to make the podium alongside Lionel Messi and Erling Haaland, but overlooked the song titled Ballon d'Or by the same artiste.
France stars welcomed with Burna's song
Sports Brief reported that France players reported to camp for the last international break, with Burna Boy's Big 7 reverberating in the arena in Paris.
Captain Mbappe and vice-captain Antoine Griezmann were some of the earlier arrivals setting an example for their teammates, while Lucas Hernandez also returned after recovering from injury.

FootballWhy Burna Boy quit football
Sports Brief reported that Burna Boy started a football career, explaining he had to quit the game because he did not feel important eventually.
The Nigerian musician has since won a Grammy award and is one of the richest and most-known singers in his country, with his tracks being played in many places worldwide.
However, 31-year-old Burna Boy explained that he could have been a goalkeeper instead of a chart-topper.
