Mbappe could be set to find love just months after leaving Paris
Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappe could be set for his first public relationship as the French soccer sensation was spotted holding the hands of a model whilst walking through Miami according to reports.
The 2018 FIFA World Cup winner realized his dream of playing for Los Blancos by penning a contract at the Santiago Bernabeu in June, and now the purple patch of his life could also include romance just months after leaving the City of Love by quitting Paris Saint Germain.
PageSix.com reports that the 25-year-old has been dating Dani Grace Almeida and that the pair hung out in Florida by heading to Lucky Strike for some bowling, dinner on at Kiki on the River and the LIV nightclub to party.
“They were very cozy with their hands on each other’s legs and held hands walking out,” one source told the outlet, confirming reports that the pair were comfortable with public displays of affection to each other.
Although it’s unclear how they met, the young couple have known each other since around April 2024 after Almeida posted herself on Instagram sat in premium seats at the Parc de Princes as Mbappe’s PSG played.
Interestingly, she did not rule out a link between them either. When asked by PageSix.com, Almeida said, “I do not personally wish to comment on our status at this time.”
Their relationship comes after Mbappe endured a difficult UEFA European Championships where France was dumped out in the semi-finals in Germany by the eventual winners, Spain.
The 2-1 loss meant that Mbappe had only scored once in the tournament, which he also broke his nose in, marking an unusual loss of form after he ended the 2022 FIFA World Cup with a hatrick against Lionel Messi’s Argentina in the final.
Who do Real Madrid play first?
Mbappe will switch his talents from Paris to Madrid for the 2024/25 season and will swap Ligue 1 for LaLiga, but his first competitive game will not be for something as trivial as league points at his new club.
Real Madrid’s star forward will immediately be thrust into the UEFA Super Cup final where they will face the UEFA Europa League winners, Atalanta, on Wednesday, August 14, 2024. The game will kick off at 15:00 ET/12:00 PT.
