Kylian Mbappé is going through a complicated period. His recent match against Liverpool, marked by a lackluster performance and a missed penalty, illustrates the difficulties of the French prodigy. A situation which gives rise to various interpretations, including the surprising one of former world champion Emmanuel Petit.
On the After Foot set, Petit affirmed, with great conviction, that Kylian Mbappé could be a victim of maraboutage. “I think he was really abused. I believe in these things, even if it is not in Western culture,” he declared, facing a stunned Daniel Riolo.

Emmanuel Petit went further by discussing the persistent rumors linking this situation to Paul Pogba, although without tangible proof. “You get the answer when you ask the question. Pogba? I don’t know, everyone tells me that,” he added with confidence. This outing, as lunar as it is unexpected, risks causing a lot of noise. While some might see this as a serious argument, others will denounce a far-fetched hypothesis, fueling unnecessary speculation around Mbappé’s performance.
Whatever happens, the Real Madrid star will have to quickly return to his best level to silence the critics and refocus the debates on the pitch. For now, its club adaptation remains at the heart of discussions.
