Kylian Mbappé weighs MLS offer as France advances in World Cup

France secured a 3‑0 win over Iraq to reach the World Cup round of 16, with Kylian Mbappé playing a central role. Mbappé matched Miroslav Klose’s World Cup goal record and repeated his double‑goal performance against Senegal, keeping France among the tournament favorites.

Outside the pitch, the French striker disclosed that David Beckham’s Inter Miami has approached him about a move to Major League Soccer. Mbappé said the American club “has mentioned it many times” and expressed curiosity about the different culture, but affirmed he is focused on the present and his current duties with the national team and Real Madrid. He did not rule out a future transfer, noting his contract runs until 2030.

The comments sparked widespread discussion on social media, highlighting the growing appeal of MLS to top European talent while France continues to compete for the title.
