Mbappé, PSG Trade Massive Claims in Paris Labor Court as Ruling Set for December 16

The court set December 16 for a decision on the high-stakes labor case.

Overview

  • Mbappé is seeking €263 million from PSG, including about €55 million he says is unpaid, plus damages tied to contract reclassification and alleged moral harassment.
  • PSG filed a counterclaim variously put at €240 million and, in separate statements and reports, at €440 million, citing lost transfer revenue, image harm and alleged breaches.
  • The club’s case leans on a rejected €300 million offer from Al Hilal in 2023 and an alleged August 2023 understanding to reduce pay if Mbappé later left for free, which his camp denies.
  • Mbappé’s filing describes being isolated from the main squad in 2023 — excluded from the pre-season tour and made to train with fringe players — as evidence of “lofting” and workplace misconduct.
  • PSG accuses the player of disloyalty for concealing for nearly 11 months his decision not to extend his deal, while Mbappé argues his fixed-term contract should be reclassified under French labor law.
