A Paris labour court has ordered Paris Saint-Germain to pay Kylian Mbappe 60 million euros ($70.6m) in unpaid salary and bonuses, bringing a partial end to one of the most acrimonious disputes in French football.<\/p>\n
The ruling on Tuesday followed months of legal wrangling after the France striker took PSG to court over earnings he said were withheld for April, May and June 2024, shortly before he left the Ligue 1 club to join Real Madrid on a free transfer.
\n\u201cWe are satisfied with the ruling. This is what you could expect when salaries went unpaid,\u201d Mbappe\u2019s lawyer Frederique Cassereau told reporters.<\/p>\n
The court found PSG had failed to pay three months of Mbappe\u2019s salary, an ethics bonus and a signing bonus due under his employment contract.<\/p>\n
Those sums were recognised as due by two decisions of the French Professional Football League in September and October 2024, and the judges said PSG had not produced any written agreement showing Mbappe had waived his entitlement.<\/p>\n
The judges rejected PSG\u2019s arguments that Mbappe should forfeit his unpaid wages entirely but also dismissed several of the player\u2019s additional claims, including allegations of concealed work, moral harassment and breach of the employer\u2019s duty of safety.<\/p>\n
The court did not view Mbappe\u2019s fixed-term contract as a permanent one, a decision that limited the scale of potential compensation related to dismissal and notice pay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
