Suffering from a rare disease, 8-year-old Camille met her idol, Kylian Mbappé, after cycling the 90 kilometers between her home and the Parc des Princes with her father.

This is the story of a courageous little girl, affected by a rare disease. Camille, 8, had a dream: to meet Kylian Mbappé. A dream come true for the young supporter with a malformation in the heart and spine who was able to share a moment with the French striker. Six months ago, the young girl had challenged Kylian Mbappé in a video where she asked him to stay at PSG. There followed a wave of online hatred against the 8-year-old girl. Kylian Mbappé had then publicly defended himself on social networks.

Camille has challenged herself to complete the 90 kilometers that separate her home from the Parc des Princes by bike with her father. Upon arrival, a crowd of supporters came to welcome the young girl. “A lot of emotions. It’s incredible. We expected a welcome, but a welcome like that… Only Paris supporters can offer it. It’s great thank you very much”, enthused with emotion the father of the young girl. With a smile on her face, Camille also shared her joy: “It’s good, I’m happy.” Camille, whose challenge serves in particular to raise funds for sick children, set off again by bicycle to Dreux (Eure-et-Loir) with stars in her eyes.
