In an interview with Ouest-France , Mrs. Lamari frankly admitted that Caen's current season "has not met expectations." This is a rare statement from the Mbappe family since taking over the club.
After 28 rounds in the Championnat National (the third tier of French football), Caen is only in eighth place with 36 points. They are 20 points behind league leaders Dijon FCO and have virtually said goodbye to the promotion race. This is a harsh reality for a team that had aimed to return to Ligue 2 after being relegated last season.
Mrs. Lamari didn't shy away from disappointment, but maintained optimism. Mbappe's mother emphasized that she likes to win, but everything needs to be built step by step. According to her, the project needs more time to produce clearer results.
She also expressed confidence in Gael Clichy, who has been appointed to lead the team at the end of 2025, replacing Maxime d'Ornano. The former Arsenal defender is considered to bring positive values such as work ethic, effort, and a strong human element. According to her, the changes are evident in training, while the impact in matches will require more time.
Mbappe became the owner of Caen in the summer of 2024 through the Coalition Capital fund. He even visited the club in person in early 2025, but just weeks later, the team was relegated to the third division for the first time since 1984.
At one point, Mbappe was criticized for showing little interest in the team.
