US EditionParis Labor Court to Rule on Mbappé-PSG Financial Dispute in $800M Battle
Mbappé seeks over €260 million for unpaid wages and damages, while PSG demands €440 million for lost transfer fees, in a dispute that could impact French soccer labor law.
- The Paris labor court is set to rule on Tuesday in the financial dispute between Kylian Mbappé and Paris Saint-Germain after lawyers argued over claims tied to Mbappé's move to Real Madrid.
- Mbappé's lawyers contend PSG owes more than 260 million euros, alleging moral harassment and unpaid wages for April–June 2024 while seeking reclassification of his contract as permanent.
- The club argues that Mbappé hid his intentions for nearly 11 months, causing major financial harm and seeks 440 million euros, including 180 million euros lost after he declined Al-Hilal's 300 million euros offer in July 2023.
- The panel may decide to decline jurisdiction, adjourn the case, or sit with a tie-breaking judge, and Tuesday's decision can be appealed, making further proceedings likely.
- A ruling could reshape player contract classification under French sports law, as PSG notes Mbappé played in over 94% of matches in 2023–24 and moved to Real Madrid in summer 2024.
