Mbappe files harassment complaint against PSG

Kylian Mbappe has accused Paris Saint-Germain of moral harassment in a legal filing, the Paris prosecutor’s office said on Thursday. The current Real Madrid star is at odds with his former club, arguing PSG owes him $61 million (Rs 523 cr) in unpaid wages.

Mbappé is also unhappy with the way he was treated by the Ligue 1 club when the France captain was sidelined before the 2023-24 season, following his decision not to extend his club contract and decline a move to Saudi Arabia’s Al Hilal. He was left out of PSG’s pre-season tour to Japan and South Korea and was forced to train with fringe players.

The prosecutor’s office said Mbappe is ‘denouncing the lofting’ he claimed to have been subjected to at PSG. The word lofting is used in France to describe a practice that involves isolating a player from the main squad for sporting, administrative, or disciplinary reasons.
