August 21 – Kylian Mbappé is reported to have contacted UEFA over millions of unpaid fees allegedly due to him from his previous club, Paris St Germain.
French media reports claim that the newly signed Real Madrid star has not received his last few salary payments from PSG and is in dispute with its main shareholder, Qatar Sports Investments, over a figure at €55 million.
This amount includes the final third of a signing bonus (€36 million gross) that the player was supposed to receive in February, plus the last three months of wages from his contract (April, May, June), as well as an “ethical bonus” for these three months.
Apparently Mbappé has referred the matter to the legal committee of the French Professional Football League (LFP) and, via the French Football Federation (FFF), to UEFA.
Since joining Real, the 25-year-old superstar has made two appearances, scoring his debut goal against Atalanta in the UEFA Super Cup.
It is rumoured that PSG are refusing to pay the bonus to Mbappe because he promised he wouldn’t leave for free.
