The judges ruled that the club had not presented any written agreement to prove the player's potential waiver of those rights. The tribunal upheld previous decisions by the French Professional Football League (LFP), which had already recognized those sums as due in rulings issued in September and October 2024. PSG has not yet issued an official statement and has indicated it will appeal the ruling.
Those close to the current Real Madrid forward celebrated the decision.
Buenos Aires, Dec 16 (NA) – The legal dispute between Kylian Mbappé and Paris Saint-Germain has come to an end with a resounding ruling in favor of the footballer, in a case that had a major impact on European football.
After months of legal battle, a Parisian court ruled that the club breached its contractual obligations with the forward and must pay him a substantial sum for unpaid salaries and bonuses corresponding to the final months of his contract.
According to what Noticias Argentinas agency learned, Justice ordered PSG to pay Mbappé around 60 million euros, a figure that includes unpaid salaries from April, May, and June 2024, as well as an ethics bonus and a signing bonus stipulated in the contract.
His lawyer, Frédérique Cassereau, emphasized that "it was to be expected when salaries are not paid" and stressed that the core of the claim was always a basic principle: work done must be compensated. Finally, she highlighted that the court ordered the provisional enforcement of the payment, obliging the club to comply with the ruling immediately.
