Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappe has been left shocked by a rape and sexual harassment claim made against him during a recent visit to Sweden. Mbappe, who strongly denies the allegations, was in Sweden from Wednesday to Friday last week with friends. Reports from Swedish media suggested the superstar is under investigation following an alleged incident at his hotel on Thursday evening.
Mbappe immediately refuted the claims on Monday, calling them “fake news” and stating that the timing was suspicious, as he is currently involved in a legal dispute with his former club, PSG, over unpaid wages. His lawyer, Marie-Alix Canu-Bernard, spoke out on French TV, emphasizing that the accusations are unfounded and that Mbappe is always accompanied, ruling out any wrongdoing.
Despite the ongoing investigation and media attention, Mbappe maintains his innocence and is prepared to cooperate with Swedish authorities if necessary. His legal team has also vowed to take action against anyone spreading false claims. Meanwhile, Real Madrid held a crisis meeting to discuss the situation, but Mbappe continues to express confidence, believing he has nothing to be blamed for.
