PSG Refuse To Pay Kylian Mbappé €55 Million Despite Losing Appeal
Despite losing an appeal, Paris Saint-Germain continues to withhold €55 million from Kylian Mbappé.
Goal reported on Friday that the appeals commission of the French league decided against the club and ordered them to pay the amount.
PSG, on the other hand, has stated that they will challenge the decision in court.
“Now that the appeals committee has confirmed the opinion of the legal committee, PSG has decided to take the case to the appropriate courts while continuing to try to find an amicable solution with the player,” a spokesperson for PSG told RMC Sport.
The club claims that Mbappé waived the payment when he agreed to rejoin the first-team squad last season, and that it owes nothing to its former striker. Be that as it may, Mbappé, who moved to Real Madrid this late summer, is looking for everything and has dismissed any proposals of intercession.
PSG’s spokesperson added, “The player has made clear and repeated public and private commitments that the club is simply asking him to honour and respect, given the unprecedented advantages he has enjoyed from the club over seven years in Paris,” expressing frustration with Mbappé’s position.
PSG cautioned that if the dispute persisted, they would be forced to take legal action, despite expressing their desire to find a solution.
“The club hopes that its word will be respected because it is aware that if the player, regrettably, decides to pursue this dispute, the club will be obligated to have it judged by the competent courts and to have the prejudice it has suffered and continues to suffer as a result of the incomprehensible position of its former player recognized. The club hopes that its word will be respected. The spokesperson continued, “It is a matter of good faith, honesty, upholding values, and respect for the institution of Paris and its supporters.”
Mbappé is getting ready for his next challenge on the field, playing for Real Madrid in the eagerly anticipated El Clásico against Barcelona this weekend. It appears that the legal battle will continue.
