Kylian Mbappé demands that his former club pay him millions of euros in unpaid wages and bonuses. The French player has taken the matter forward.
A football player Kylian Mbappé demands nearly 55 million euros in unpaid wages and bonuses from his former club Paris Saint-Germain. Reported about it Le Monde.
According to Le Monde, the French player has taken the matter to the legal department of the European football confederation Uefa, the French football association FFF and the LFP, the umbrella organization of the French football league.
According to the French newspaper, 36 million of the amount is the last part of the signing bonus that Mbappé was supposed to receive in February. In addition to this, the amount consists of Mbappé’s last three months’ salary at the club and the “loyalty bonus” from the same period.
The French player is said to have already demanded in mid-June that the club pay him the unpaid money no later than June 30, when his contract at PSG expired.
PSG was reported For Radio Francethat it has not received a notification from the LFP or the country’s football association. Otherwise, the Parisian club did not want to comment to the French media on the ongoing discussions, which according to the club have been held in a constructive spirit for several months.
According to Radio France, the most severe consequences of unpaid wages could be a ban on recruitment or the loss of the Uefa license for the club. Losing the license would mean the team would not be able to play in the Champions League.
The dispute between Mbappé and PSG is believed to last several more weeks.
The 25-year-old Mbappé, who played in Paris for seven seasons, moved from PSG to the Spanish club Real Madrid this summer.
He made his debut for his new club last week when Real Madrid faced Atalanta in the Super Cup. Real Madrid won the match and Mbappé scored the second of his team’s goals.
