Kylian Mbappe speaks out amid reports the French superstar has not been paid his full salary and bonus by PSG ahead of his expected free transfer to Real Madrid

The relationship between PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi and the departing Kylian Mbappe remains strong, amid reports the forward has not been paid his full salary and bonus by the club.

PSG and the player have both previously publicly stated there is an agreement in place that respects the huge investment the club have put into Mbappe’s development since he joined in a £166m transfer from Monaco in 2017.

The France national team captain and PSG president Al-Khelaifi embraced each other at the KAFD Globe Soccer Awards Europe in Sardinia on Tuesday and enjoyed an evening surrounded by some of European football’s biggest names.

Mbappe was named the best player in Europe for the 2023-24 season at the ceremony and gave a glowing review of PSG in his acceptance speech.
