The investigation into alleged rape in the hotel where Kylian Mbappé stayed in Stockholm also affects Paris Saint-Germain. Because if no link has been established between the former Parisian striker and the facts, he directly pointed the finger at the club, with whom he has been in conflict for several months. In a reaction on X, the captain of the Blues wrote: “fake news! It becomes so predictable, audience watch as if by chance.”
The hearing in question concerns the financial dispute between him and his former club. Kylian Mbappé is demanding 55 million euros in unpaid salaries and bonuses, a sum that PSG judges not to owe him, an agreement having been reached between the two parties. After an appearance before the legal commission of the Professional Football League (LFP), which ruled in favor of the player, the capital club decided to appeal to the joint appeals committee of the LFP. The hearing is scheduled for Tuesday.
Could the two cases be linked? In any case, this is what Kylian Mbappé implies. A statement that does not pass muster on the side of PSG, which has not yet officially communicated. “It’s a shame,” they say within the club. We will ignore it and keep our class and our dignity.” PSG is clearly tired of being directly singled out as responsible whenever Mbappé has problems, both on and off the pitch.
For their part, the Frenchman’s entourage claimed that it was a “new slanderous rumor”. “In order to put an end to this methodical destruction of his image (that 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.
