“FAKE NEWS!!!! It’s becoming so predictable, the day before the hearing as if by chance,” protested the Real Madrid player on the social network X, establishing a link between this article and the hearing scheduled for Tuesday before a Football League committee professional (LFP) in the financial dispute between it and Paris SG.
The former Parisian striker is demanding 55 million euros in unpaid wages and other bonuses from his former club.
On Thursday evening, Mbappé was with a group of people at the Chez Jolie restaurant in the Swedish capital before going to the “V” club where they met other people, Aftonbladet claims.
The rape was allegedly committed Thursday evening “in the center of Stockholm,” according to a complaint that Aftonbladet claims to have consulted.
“The police took up the complaint on Saturday after the woman sought treatment,” adds the newspaper, which does not say who is suspected in this case.
“An investigation is underway into a crime which was reported on October 10 in the center of Stockholm,” the prosecutor in charge of the case told AFP without giving further details.
Also contacted by AFP, the Stockholm police wished to “neither confirm nor deny” this information.
“In general, if we have received a complaint and decided to conduct interviews and we make it known (to the public), it is possible that those involved in the case take actions that delay and complicate the investigation,” explained Carina Skagerlind, spokesperson.
According to photos published by Aftonbladet, the police were on Monday in front of the hotel where Mbappé and his entourage were staying.
Faced with the scale that this affair is starting to take on social networks in France, the player’s entourage wanted to react firmly.
“Today, a new slanderous rumor is starting to ignite the web from the Swedish media Aftonbladet,” he explains in a press release sent to AFP. “These accusations are completely false and irresponsible, and their propagation is unacceptable.”
“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 warns again.
Indirectly blamed by the player in his tweet, Paris SG prefers to “ignore him and keep his class and dignity,” a source close to the club told AFP.
