It's used to describe parents pushing their children into football from a young age, inspired by Kylian Mbappé’s father, Wilfrid. But beneath it lies a far more deliberate story - one of meticulous planning, hyper-analysis, and a career mapped out long before Mbappé had even played professional football. Andy is joined by Philippe Auclair, author of The Mbappé Project: Making a Superstar , to explore how one of the sport's biggest players was shaped from the age of six. Every decision. Every interview. Every sponsorship. All of it, carefully calculated from the very beginning. Ask us a question on  X ,  Instagram  and  TikTok , and email us here:  otc@footballramble.com .
