However, he is maintaining his lawsuit against his former club PSG before the labor court for what he considers to be outstanding salary payments amounting to 55 million euros.

The Real Madrid striker's goal is to smooth over the legal issues and focus exclusively on the sport, the newspaper reported. The move comes shortly before Mbappé's first sporting encounter with his former club since his move to Madrid just over a year ago. Real will face PSG in the semifinals of the Club World Cup on Wednesday (21.00:XNUMX p.m. CEST).

The Paris public prosecutor's office launched an investigation into the bullying allegations. The striker had denounced being sidelined by PSG. French media reported on the allegations, referring to a practice known as "lofting." Clubs separate players who do not wish to extend their contracts from the rest of the team. Mbappé joined Real Madrid on a free transfer in June 2024 after seven years with PSG.
