Mbappé involved in alleged rape case

Kylian Mbappé is being investigated by Swedish police. According to information from Expressen, the police consider that the French international is “reasonably suspected” of rape and sexual assault. According to France Press, this is the most basic stage of the investigation.

According to Swedish newspapers, the police investigation began after a complaint from an alleged victim, who mentioned events that allegedly occurred at the end of last week, when Mbappé and his family spent a few days in Stockholm on a private trip .

Mbappé was staying at a Stockholm hotel on the night of October 10-11, taking advantage of the fact that he was not playing for the national team. The newspaper Aftonbladet reported on Monday that an investigation had been opened into an alleged rape that took place at the hotel where Kylian Mbappé and several close friends, including his former PSG teammate Nordi Mukiele, had been staying; the newspaper referred to a complaint made to the police by a young woman on October 12, but did not name any suspects.

The police confirmed the investigation to the France Press agency, but did not confirm that the target was the French international.The athlete quickly reacted on the social network X. In a Tweet that is now unavailable, Mbappé assured that the “fake news” is yet another attempt to damage his reputation.

“ These accusations are completely false and irresponsible, and their propagation is unacceptable. To put an end to this systematic destruction of his image, all necessary legal measures will be taken to restore the truth and prosecute any person or media outlet involved in moral harassment .”
Deschamps annoyed

French coach Didier Deschamps was asked about the matter and ended up revealing that the incidents created a “negative atmosphere” within the team.

” This is not good for the French team. I’m not going to discuss this with Kylian because he’s old enough to know how to communicate. It’s something that’s everywhere, taking on very large proportions. We need to distinguish between truth and falsehood. I repeat: everyone is free to write what they want, but there is a negative atmosphere. Be careful when you publish things. It’s better to wait a little, think before publishing. Even so, there are things that are not difficult to prove “, said Deschamps, quoted by Mundo Deportivo.
