Kylian Mbappei has directed lawyers that the French football star claimed that he was the unpaid wage and bonus by his former club Paris Saint-Germain.
A year after the dispute moved to the Spanish Giants Real Madrid of Mbappe’s 2024, a year after the PSG passed him temporarily, he alleged that he had dropped him from the team after refusing to expand his contract in the club.
At a press conference in Paris, a criminal and civil suit announced, one of Mbappei’s lawyers, Thomas Clay, said: “I remind you that Kylean Mbappe is the captain of the French national team, he is the highest scorer in the club’s history and he is recognized with him, he is his salaries, he is his salaries.”
His other lawyer, Delfine Veriden, said that “time to attack PSG” has added that a Civil Court judge in Paris has ordered that $ 55 million to be temporarily frozen from the club’s assets.
The legal publicity reveals the deeper one-sided in the French football team captain and PSG’s pre-eminent club.
Qatari-owned PSG said that a version of Mbappei’s events, who played a key role in the 2018 World Cup in France, achieved global prominence in the “fabulous storytelling parallel”.
The club added, “Why PSG Kylian Mbappei rejects a Mayiami proposal, still refusing to take his case to the Labor Court, which is the only court capable of settling the dispute,” the club added.
Mbapie’s lawyers, who became the second valuable player of all time when the club signed him in 2017, said they also filed a complaint to inform the French Football Federation to inform the European Football Steering Committee UEFA, which was paid.
They claim that it could prevent PSG in Europe’s most profitable club competition in the Champions League. A person close to PSG has reduced the possibility. UEFA refused to comment.
Mbappei’s lawyers said they also planned to expand the dispute in the Labor Court.
Mbappei claims that he confirmed that he would leave PSG after February 2021, that the French club refused to pay him from April to June 2021, when he signed a free transfer for Real Madrid.
The PSG reported that the player agreed orally to renounce his wages. Although the club denied that it was money. He said that a person familiar with the matter said that it had separated $ 55 million when it was ordered to be provided.
A Mbappei lawyer said that this player, considered to be one of the best in the world, intended to file criminal charges against PSG for “moral harassment” with France public prosecutors in the coming days. The player claimed that PSG’s decision to exclude him in 2021 was a form of extortion for him to sign a new agreement.
Separately, Mbappe’s lawyers said they and his mother were allegedly associated with his salary with his salary, which were alleged to have taken action in a criminal court against X and Meta in the criminal court.
X refused to comment. Meta did not immediately respond to any request for the comment.
PSG has continued to dominate French club football since the departure of Mbappe, won the domestic league this season and defeated the English Side Aston Villa in the first leg of the Champions League quarter -finals this week.
