The FFF rejected PSG's request to pay Mbappé 55 million euros.
The French Football Federation (FFF) has rejected Paris SG's request to review the Professional Football League's (LFP) injunction to pay 55 million euros in unpaid salaries and bonuses to its former player Kylian Mbappé, it has been learned AFP from a source close to the matter on Friday.
The request to the Executive Committee of the FFF was transmitted a day too late by PSG, according to the same source, while the club had 10 days to make it from the decision of the joint appeals committee of the LFP in favor of the player, on October 25.
As a reminder, the Blues striker is claiming a little more than 55 million euros gross in salaries for the months of April, May and June, as well as bonuses that he should have received with Paris Saint-Germain. A letter of formal notice was initially sent to Paris Saint-Germain, but negotiations between the two parties did not progress.
PSG considers that it is within its right to certain unpaid bonuses being those known as “ethics” or even “loyalty”. However, for the Parisian club, the announcement of the departure of Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid made these bonuses obsolete. The Mbappé clan, for its part, defends the idea that a contract is a contract and that it must be honored to the end, which is what the Blues striker did.
