Tesla CEO Elon Musk has just shocked the global press by offering young French player Désiré Doué $100 million to promote the latest electric car: the Tesla Cybertruck. At just 19 years old and playing for Paris Saint-Germain, Doué has emerged as one of the most promising young talents in European football, attracting the attention of many of the world’s biggest brands. However, his reaction to the tech billionaire’s invitation left many surprised and shocked.

According to numerous sources, Elon Musk’s proposal isn’t just a standard advertising campaign, but also comes with attractive terms such as the right to use a non-living car, the opportunity to participate in major Tesla events around the world, and even become the company’s exclusive face in Europe. This demonstrates Musk’s ambition not only to expand the electric vehicle market but also to make Tesla a cultural symbol associated with youth and sports.

However, contrary to many people’s predictions that Doué would accept such an attractive offer, the PSG player refused without hesitation. In a brief but powerful statement, Doué stated that he wanted to focus entirely on his football career and did not want to be dominated by overwhelming commercial commitments at the moment. He emphasized that while he was honored to be invited by Elon Musk to collaborate, he did not feel the image Cybertruck was seeking.

This reaction immediately sparked a storm on social media. Some praised Doué for his maturity and confidence, while others believed he had missed a golden opportunity to achieve global influence. Although opinions were mixed, it cannot be denied that Doué’s decision made the public view him differently, not only as a good player, but also as someone with a clear and consistent position.

Meanwhile, Tesla has not issued an official response to the rejection. However, many media experts believe Musk’s decision is part of his strategy to reach younger generations through sports icons rather than movie stars or traditional celebrities. While the deal fell through, Musk’s bold decision confirmed once again that he has always been able to get the world’s attention, and the desired gift, although rejected, has become even more meaningful and admirable in the eyes of fans.
