Two months ago, Sorare launched its most exciting competition yet, featuring one of the best players in the world—Kylian Mbappé!

The Real Madrid star was facing some fierce competition on Sorare from his own brother, Ethan. In order to make things right and take his team to the next level he turned to our dedicated Sorare Managers to find someone who could take over his team. 

The search led to Pacoplayer—a dedicated Sorare Manager who proved he was up to the challenge. His lineup (below) earned him a coveted raffle ticket, and he emerged as the lucky winner. Now, he proudly manages Kylian Mbappé’s account with a unique badge on his profile to prove it.

With great responsibility comes even greater rewards. Kylian Mbappé and Sorare put together an exclusive prize package for Paco, including:

• A private meeting with Kylian Mbappé
• 10 VIP tickets of his choice for games featuring Mbappé or other top matchups
• 2 signed jerseys
• 1 signed Sorare card

Paco has already begun enjoying these incredible experiences. The kind any football fan would dream of.

Now, let’s hear from the winner himself—Paco shares his journey, thoughts on Sorare, and what this incredible achievement means to him.

How did you first discover Sorare, and when did you start playing?
For the past five years, football fantasy has been a serious passion (just ask my university friends!). About two years ago, the fantasy influencers I follow started talking about Sorare. I told myself I’d try it someday, and this year, I finally took the plunge. I couldn’t be happier with my  decision –  It brought loads of fun with the game itself and the entire community around it.

What was your secret to winning the Kylian Mbappé FC competition? Did you use a specific strategy?
I chose the league I know best: LALIGA. I analyzed the matchday as usual, pinpointing favorable matchups for specific teams. My picks included two Atlético players, a LALIGA legend like Iago Aspas, a two-way defender like Lejeune, and the rising star, Lamine. This lineup earned me the raffle ticket and the chance to win the competition.

How does it feel to win such an incredible prize—meeting Kylian Mbappé, 10 VIP game tickets, and two signed jerseys?
It still feels surreal. Initially, I thought it might be too good to be true, but after speaking with the Sorare team, it finally started to sink in. The prize is incredible – a chance to meet my team’s superstar and enjoy the VIP experience at the Bernabéu. As a lifelong Real Madrid fan who’s never had this opportunity, it’s truly a dream come true. Those jerseys will definitely be framed and proudly displayed at home.

Which upcoming experiences are you most excited about this season?
I’m always scouting for the next big talents. I take pride in spotting top players before others. I’m especially looking forward to the next MLS season, I have my eye on a few players that will help the Mbappé FC club.

Would you recommend Sorare to your friends?
Definitely, it’s transformed the way I enjoy football for the better! Actually, a friend from uni is getting into Sorare now. I’d been encouraging him to try it for a while, but after seeing all the opportunities the game offers, he’s now fully committed to giving it a shot.
