A Soccer star kicking it with a Playboy cover model?

Now normally you wouldn’t think twice about a rich and famous athlete dating a playboy cover model, but this particular model isn’t just your run of the mill model who has appeared on the famous magazine cover. In fact, Model Ines Rau was the very first transgender model to grace the cover of the magazine. Following a breakup with former girlfriend Emma Smet, Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe was reportedly spotted with Playboy model, Ines Rau Ines. Despite the rumors swirling about them being an actual couple, neither the PSG star nor Ines has commented on the reports of them being in a relationship.

According to Italian news outlet Corriere dello Sports, Mbappe was seen at the Cannes Film Festival with Rau and was later pictured carrying Rau on a luxury yacht.

Twitter quickly jumped on the sighting of the soccer star and model.

Rau first appeared in Playboy back in 2014, and in 2017 she became the first transgender model to star on the cover. At the time of the issue release, Cooper Hefner, the son of Hugh Hefner said:

“We should collectively be fighting for a more open world, not one that promotes hatred and a lack of acceptance.”

Mbappe has reportedly keeping busy on the pitch too.  There have been reports of beef between Mbappe and the Parc des Princes club’s other mega stars, Neymar and Lionel Messi.

Sounds like Mbappe has his hands full this season.
