Mbappé Defends Himself Against Selfishness Claims, Cites France Assists Record

Fabrizio Romano posted quotes from Kylian Mbappé’s L’Équipe interview in which the forward says he has an “obsession with scoring goals” because “it’s my job” and insists he is not selfish, pointing to his status as France’s all-time assists leader. The post is trending due to Romano’s large audience, Mbappé’s superstar status at Real Madrid/France, and long-running fan and media debates about his finishing-first mentality versus playmaking.

“🚨 Kylian Mbappé: “I just have an obsession with scoring goals it’s my job, that's it… I'm not selfish”. “How can I be selfish and be the player with most assists in France NT history?!”, told L’Équipe.”
