    The French international's legal team is prepared to file a lawsuit against the record Ligue 1 champions, according to Mbappe's mother Fayza Lamari. Les Parisiens reportedly still owe Mbappe a sum of €80 million (£67m/$87m) for a bonus and two months' wages in 2024.

    WHAT MBAPPE'S MOTHER SAID

    Asked about the situation regarding his unpaid wages, Lamari told to Le Parisien: "It's still going on. It's now in the hands of Kylian's representatives. But I trust PSG that things will get back to normal very quickly. We just received a response letter from them. Decisions will be made. Sometimes, during separations, you have to decide who gets the TV, who keeps the furniture or the car...

    "That's where we are. I hope that all this won't tarnish everything we've experienced, that we won't dwell on that. I want to remember the positive things about PSG, that even this year when it was difficult, playing at the Parc, in your city, is beautiful. Like in a couple, once again, everything is never rosy, there are ups and downs. But in six months, things will be better."

    Pressed on whether or not the case could go to court, she added: "If we have no choice, yes, of course. Now, I really hope that the contract we signed two years ago will be respected. Let's stop saying: 'Kylian said, didn't say, did this, didn't do that'. Nobody, in reality, can say what happened, neither me, nor the representatives of PSG, since for two years Kylian and the president have always seen each other alone, except once. And all that hasn't stopped Kylian from playing since the announcement in February."

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    The 25-year-old completed one of the most highly awaited transfers in football history when he left PSG when his contract ended in June and signed a five-year deal as a free agent with Real Madrid. He may now have to file a lawsuit against a team that has experienced problems with other players leaving for other reasons in the past.

  • WHAT NEXT FOR MBAPPE?

    The French World Cup winner will reportedly miss Los Blancos' trip to the United States due to his nose injury that he suffered during the European Championship. He will likely only link up with his teammates for the start of the La Liga season.
