Mbappé will dine at the Élysée with Macron and the Emir of Qatar on Tuesday evening. Emmanuel Macron invited the star striker as well as the president of Paris Saint-Germain, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, to this event in honor of Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani.

This event takes place in the context of political and diplomatic discussions between France and Qatar. It should be noted that this is not the first time that Kylian Mbappé has been invited to theÉlysée. In February 2018, after the election of George Weah as president of Liberia, Mbappe had already had the opportunity to share an official lunch with the two heads of state.
