Kylian Mbappé has not ruled out the possibility of one day playing in Major League Soccer, admitting that Inter Miami co-owner David Beckham has repeatedly raised the idea with him. The France international, who is ruling the European side, might one day score goals in Major League Soccer too.
France superstar Mbappe open to Future MLS move; reveals Beckham’s persistent pitch
In recent comments, the French superstar said:
“Playing in MLS one day? I don’t know… David Beckham mentioned that to me many times. We will see, I don’t know.”
The Los Blancos star added praise for American culture, noting:
“The American culture is different, there are no limits to ambitions, I like it.”
The remarks come as MLS continues to grow in global appeal, boosted significantly by Lionel Messi’s arrival at Inter Miami in 2023. Beckham, who helped transform the league’s profile upon his own move to LA Galaxy in 2007, has actively courted top talent to elevate the competition further.
Mbappe is currently shining for Real Madrid after his high-profile transfer from PSG. While any MLS move remains speculative and likely years away, his openness signals a shift in how elite players view the league not just as a final payday, but as an ambitious destination aligned with limitless opportunity.
Fans and analysts have quickly drawn parallels to Messi’s successful stint in Miami, with many speculating that a future Mbappé-Beckham reunion in the U.S. could be another game-changer for American soccer. For now, the Ballon d’Or contender remains focused on his club duties and France’s campaign in the 2026 World Cup.
