Mbappé is known to love "Captain Tsubasa" so much that he says he has been a big fan since he was a child.

When he first came to Japan in 2019, he was presented with a portrait by Yoichi Takahashi, the author of "Captain Tsubasa". 

When he came to Japan on a club trip in 2022, he met with Takahashi-sensei and gave him a passionate look.

He is also a fan of "Captain Tsubasa". 

At the reception event when he came to Japan for his Japan tour the other day, he was glued to Mr. Takahashi, who appeared as a guest.
