Fayza Lamari, the mother of the future ex PSG player, was at Parnasse for the Usam – Chartres, Friday April 26, on behalf of the 26th day of Starligue. Out of friendship for Nîmes president David Tebib, and a former teammate…

This weekend, Fayza Lamari returned to her first love. From the time when she was not known as the mother of Kylian Mbappé, but as a high-level handball player. She played in Bondy in the 1990s, in the first and second divisions, before the birth of the child prodigy.
