Kylian Mbappé is currently defending himself against reports of alleged rape investigations against him. Now there are new details about his party night.
The French soccer star Kylian Mbappé, who according to the media is being investigated in Stockholm over allegations of rape, only wants to speak to the Swedish judiciary, according to his lawyer. “He reserves his explanations for the Swedish judiciary if necessary,” said Marie-Alix Canu-Bernard on Thursday. She also “strongly rejected the media’s claims” that Mbappé had commented on the course of his trip to Stockholm.
The French newspaper “Le Parisien” reported on Thursday that the French international and Real Madrid striker had “sexual intercourse” with a young woman, which was “consensual”.
RMC Sports also reported this. According to the two media outlets, Mbappé has messages from the young woman with a “very positive tone” that tell the story of a “happy encounter” that contains “no ambiguity whatsoever,” Le Parisien said. However, there is no evidence that the plaintiff was also the author of the news in connection with the rape allegation.
The Swedish public prosecutor’s office announced on Tuesday that it had opened an investigation, but did not name the suspect. According to Swedish media, the French football star is at the center of the investigation. The incident is said to have occurred on Thursday last week in a hotel in the center of the Swedish capital.
As the Swedish newspaper “Expressen” reports, Mbappé is said to have celebrated that Thursday in Stockholm’s “V” club. There he is said to have booked a room for a private party with around 30 people, most of them women. The influencer Julia Franzén reports in the “Expressen” report about similar parties to which she has already been invited. This is said to have included a party in Turin in 2018 with the French national team. She claims that such parties mainly invite women who are “good-looking and have a good personality.” She also reports that she had to give up her cell phone.
The 25-year-old Mbappé himself protested his innocence and announced legal action. His lawyer told AFP on Tuesday that she did not know whether the investigation in Stockholm was directed against her client. The player’s environment said on Thursday that it had no new information in connection with the investigation in Sweden. According to Expressen, there is “reasonable suspicion” against the 25-year-old – the lowest level of suspicion in the Swedish legal system.
