Mbappé and PSG Trade Nine-Figure Claims at Paris Labor Court as Ruling Set for Dec. 16

A ruling is due on 16 December following arguments over unpaid wages, contract reclassification, harassment allegations, and counterclaims by PSG.

Overview

  • At the 17 November hearing, Kylian Mbappé sought to reclassify his fixed-term deal into a permanent contract and outlined claims totaling roughly €260 million, with press reports ranging from about €240 million to €263 million, including €55 million he says remains unpaid.
  • Paris Saint‑Germain filed sweeping counterclaims, reported variously at €180 million to €240 million tied in part to a rejected €300 million Al Hilal offer, with some coverage citing a total demand of €440 million and the club disputing that any sums are owed to the player.
  • The council heard the case directly at the judgment bureau due to the reclassification request and rejected a PSG bid to shift the matter to the Paris judicial court.
  • The labor court scheduled 16 December for the pronouncement of judgment, with related proceedings noted and a prior €55 million conservatory seizure obtained by Mbappé in April annulled on 26 May.
  • The dispute tests the French ‘CDD sportif’ regime, with Mbappé’s counsel invoking the Adrien Rabiot case on requalification to bolster the argument over employment status.
