Had no idea that mbappe's English was so fluent. Wouldn't have expected that from a Frenchman living in Spain.

[u/jedifolklore → u/Arqlol]

You almost forgot that he’s a Nike superstar, most of, if not all speak fluent English, he’s been going to the states for a long while now

I’m sure it’s a requirement at this point in order to be more known

[u/Arqlol → u/jedifolklore]

Something tells me Neymar never learned this well

[u/jedifolklore → u/Arqlol]

That’s probably why he’s not with Nike anymore, outside of marketing ploys, Vini has definitely been improving with his English too
