'Boss' Mbappe remains silent amid turmoil at Caen

Becoming the majority shareholder of Caen from 2024, Kylian Mbappe stepped into the role of owner but did not deeply interfere in all activities of the team.

Mbappe does not interfere too much in the technical aspects at Caen.

According to Reda Hammache - Caen's scouting director, Mbappe knows all the club's activities, but does not impose or interfere deeply. "He receives regular reports, but does not call or force anything. Mbappe does not infringe on the management rights of the professional departments," Hammache told L'Équipe .

After a €20 million investment through Coalition Capital, Mbappe now owns 80% of Caen. Despite high expectations from fans, the team has fallen into a terrible slump and has just been relegated to the National (France's third division) after 41 years. Internal problems have caused many fans to turn their backs on him and criticize him.

However, Mbappe maintains a moderate attitude and respects professional decisions. "Every time there is a big decision, like appointing a coach, he is fully informed. When we chose Bruno Baltazar, then Michel Der Zakarian, or recently Maxime d'Ornano, Mbappe knew and supported. If there is anything he is not satisfied with, Mbappe will make it clear, and we respect that. But until now, he has always trusted us."

Hammache also stressed that Mbappe never interferes with tactics or the starting lineup. "He knows the lineup like everyone else, sometimes before the game, sometimes on TV. Mbappe cares about the club, but knows where the boundaries are," said Caen's scouting director.

Caen's relegation means a new and difficult challenge. The team must face a financial crisis, restructure its personnel and restore the trust of its fans. Coach d'Ornano is tasked with leading the team through the difficulties, developing young players and finding a way back to Ligue 2.
