Nike: What Led Kylian Mbappé to Reject the 20 Million Offered by the Equipment Manufacturer

Kylian Mbappé signed a ten-year contract with the Swiss brand On after his contract with Nike expired on July 31, 2026. Although Nike offered over 20 million euros per year to retain him, Mbappé was attracted by the opportunity to become a shareholder in On and participate in the development of new products. Thierry Henry, the director of football at On, played a key role in Mbappé's decision, who expressed his desire to build something new in football.
