Kylian Mbappé Responds to Rape Allegation Investigation in Sweden

The French football star denies involvement, calling the claims surprising and unfounded, as Swedish authorities continue their inquiry.

Kylian Mbappé has publicly addressed allegations of rape for the first time, denying any connection to the claims and expressing disbelief over the situation.
The investigation stems from an alleged incident at a Stockholm hotel in October, during Mbappé's visit to Sweden while on a break from football.
Swedish authorities have confirmed an ongoing investigation into the alleged incident but have not named any suspects or provided further details.
Mbappé stated he has not been contacted or summoned by Swedish authorities but would comply if required, reiterating his innocence in the matter.
His legal team has dismissed the allegations as false, with Mbappé labeling initial reports as 'fake news' and announcing plans to pursue legal action for defamation.
