Finally a corner of blue sky for Kylian Mbappé. At the heart of the controversy since his Swedish getaway and his failed rally with the French team, the Real Madrid striker saw the sky fall a little more on his head when his name was cited in a case of alleged rape in Stockholm. If he continues to proclaim his innocence through his lawyers, an investigation has been opened by Swedish justice in recent days. A case which, regardless of its outcome, will have tarnished the player’s name.
But this Thursday, the newspaper The Team reveals to us that the Frenchman should welcome some good news tomorrow, even if it concerns yet another big theme of recent weeks. Indeed, as revealed daily, the LFP joint appeals committee should rule in favor of the player in the context of the financial dispute between him and PSG, his former employer.
The affair could still last
As a reminder, the French international had claimed this summer 55 million euros in unpaid bonuses and salaries, corresponding more precisely to the amount of his “fidelity” bonus and his last three months of salaries in Paris, before his departure for Real Madrid. Initially, this financial dispute resulted in a formal notice, before the player and his clan contacted the LFP legal commission. Last month, the legal commission did not take a position, inviting the player and the capital club to initiate mediation to find a bilateral agreement. A solution rejected by the player and his representatives.
If PSG was subsequently ordered to pay what it owed to the 2018 world champion, the club appealed. But in this long-term process, Mbappé should therefore achieve a victory tomorrow. Which should not, however, close the matter. Following the decision handed down by the joint appeals committee of the LFP, Paris will have the possibility of resorting to the higher appeals committee, placed under the aegis of the FFF, as explained The Team. This could then be settled before the French National Olympic and Sports Committee (CNOSF), while Mbappé could for his part refer the matter to UEFA and the industrial tribunal.
