Is Mbappé Gay? Is The Footballer Playing For The Other Team?

No, Kylian Mbappé isn't gay; the footballer has not come out publicly. The speculation about Kylian Mbappé’s sexual orientation began after he was linked romantically with transgender model Ines Rau. Ines Rau was born in Paris and is of Algerian descent. She transitioned and underwent gender-affirming surgery at the age of 16, after being inspired by the life story of English trans model Caroline “Tula” Cossey. However, it wasn’t until the age of 24 that she publicly came out as transgender.

To add fuel to the rumors, Mbappé is very affectionate with his teammates. This led to rumors and speculation about Mbappé’s sexual orientation, due to people him being with a relationship with someone who used to be a man. 

However, it’s important to note that being in a relationship with a transgender woman nor showing affection for other men do not make a man gay. Transgender women are women, and being attracted to them is not a reflection of a man’s sexual orientation. These are harmful assumptions and stereotypes that undermines the identity of transgender women and contributes to the stigma and discrimination they often face

Kylian Mbappé is a French professional footballer who plays as a forward for Paris Saint-Germain and the France national team. He is considered one of the best players in the world. He has achieved numerous accolades throughout his career, including being named the Ligue 1 Player of the Year, winning the FIFA World Cup Best Young Player Award, and becoming the second teenager, after Pelé, to score in a World Cup Final.

As of 2024, Mbappé is set to leave Paris Saint-Germain for Real Madrid. He has long flirted with a move to Real Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain, where he became the club’s all-time leading goalscorer after joining as a prodigious teenager from Monaco. With his contract expiring at Parc des Princes in the summer, he is expected to move to the Bernabeu in the 2024 summer transfer window.
