Kylian Mbappé targeted by an investigation for rape according to the Swedish press, the player’s clan reacts

According to information from the Swedish press, Real Madrid and France team striker Kylian Mbappé, briefly in Stockholm last week, would be the target of an investigation for “rape and sexual assault”. It was more precisely the Swedish daily Expressen which indicated this Monday, October 14, in the evening, that the captain of the Blues would be considered “reasonably suspicious” in the eyes of the local police, i.e. the lowest degree of suspicion provided for by Swedish legislation. A little earlier in the day, the former Paris Saint-Germain scorer had publicly reacted, on his social networks, to the information from another local media, Aftonbladet. The latter confided that an investigation into rape had been opened, without making a link between Kylian Mbappé and the complaint of a young woman. “Fake news” according to the 25-year-old.

“New slanderous rumor”

So much information that the Mbappé clan insisted on denying. “Today, a new slanderous rumor is starting to ignite the web from the Swedish media Aftonbladet. These accusations are completely false and irresponsible, and their propagation is unacceptable,” denounces the entourage of through a press release sent to AFP. “In order to put an end to this methodical destruction of the image (of Kylian Mbappé), all necessary legal actions will be taken to reestablish the truth and pursue any person or media involved in the moral harassment and defamatory treatment that Kylian Mbappé suffers repeatedly,” he is also warned.
