While PSG did not pay him €55.4 million in salaries and bonuses from last season, Kylian Mbappé contacted both the LFP and the FFF to repair his damage. Questioned about this affair, a person close to the matter – on the PSG side – affirmed that the player was ensuring that the club was sanctioned. An accusation brushed aside by Delphine Verheyden, Kylian Mbappé's lawyer.
Under contract until June 30, 2024 with the PSGKylian Mbappé flew towards Madrid to sign freely and free of charge Real Madrid. However, the capital club did not pay him all of his salaries and bonuses from last season. In total, the PSG should still owe €55.4M to Kylian Mbappé according to The Team. To recover his dues, the 26-year-old star seized both the LFP and the FFF. And to believe the PSG, Kylian Mbappé went this far to get his former club sanctioned, not to get paid.
“All Mbappé wants is to be paid”
During an interview given to The Teamone close to the side file PSG claimed that Kylian Mbappé played a nasty game at the club. “A question arises. After all this time, why didn't the player file a complaint before the only court that can rule on this matter, the industrial tribunal? Odd. Instead, we are going around in circles in forums that are not appropriate for this dispute, where the player is simply seeking to sanction his former club, without actually getting his money back, which is only possible in a specialized court in labor law with which, throughout 2024, he refused to file a complaint. And, at the same time as he tries to sanction the club, he gives interviews to say how much he loves the club. Curious “, he denounced.
“My goal is not to have PSG sanctioned”
Also interviewed by The Team, Delphine Verheyden contradicted the words of this source. “When I pleaded before the League's legal commission, I told its members: 'We come before you for an extraordinary club, an extraordinary player, but for a terribly ordinary matter. There is a signed fixed-term contract, approved, executed and where the player is not paid It is distressingly banal. (…) My goal is not to have PSG sanctioned. Otherwise, we would have gone to court a long time ago for image damage or moral harassment. I could have done procedures… All Kylian Mbappé wants is to be paid what he is owed”declared the lawyer of Kylian Mbappé.
