Former PSG striker Kylian Mbappé has referred the matter to the disciplinary committee of the Professional Football League (LFP) for “failure to pay bonuses and salaries” by his former club according to an internal source.
Between Kylian Mpabbé and PSG, the rag is burning. At the beginning of last June, the football star left the capital club who had seen him grow up to realize his dream and join Real Madrid. “It’s incredible to be here. I dreamed of playing for Real Madrid for years. This dream is fulfilled today, I am a happy little boy”, he declared full Euro football. After seven seasons playing for Paris Saint-Germain, it could all have ended here.
More the end of the collaboration between the football prodigy and the Parisian club is marred by a scandal for several months. On August 20, Kylian Mbappé demanded 55 million euros from PSG, accusing the club of not having paid him his last three months of salary or part of his signing bonus. In September, Paris Saint-Germain were ordered to return the full amount to their former player following a legal commission.
Kylian Mbappé would have reached an oral agreement with PSG
More the capital club had affirmed that an oral agreement existed between the two parties in the event of a free departure from PSG, mentioning that Kylian Mbappé waived his rights. Convinced of his right, the management of Paris Saint-Germain therefore refused to pay the requested amount. An agreement whose validity is contested by the footballer who evokes a “hidden agreement”.
According to an internal source from the Professional Football League (LFP), Kylian Mbappé referred the matter to the disciplinary committee for “failure to pay bonuses and salaries” by his former club. A hearing will take place on December 11, according to this source who spoke to AFP. The statutes of the professional football league mention, in the event of “failure to pay sums owed with certainty by a French professional club”, possible fines or a ban on recruiting. For its part, the management of PSG does not seem to be worried about the new procedure launched by its former player, according to information from Jean-Marc Morandini. According to her, the professional football league can only rely on courts such as industrial tribunals.
