FFF Declines Kylian Mbappe's €55M Appeal Against PSG

Kylian Mbappé's legal dispute with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) over €55.4 million in unpaid wages and bonuses has hit another obstacle as the French Football Federation (FFF) has ruled his appeal inadmissible. The decision effectively shifts the case to ordinary courts, as PSG had previously referred the issue to the Paris Labor Court. Mbappé's claims include €36.6 million for a contractual bonus, three months' salary of €5.75 million each, and ethical bonuses totaling €500,000 per month. The FFF's ruling follows similar decisions by the Professional Football League, which also deemed his request inadmissible, and the legal proceedings are expected to prolong the resolution process. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for May 26, with a main hearing to follow later. Mbappé's lawyer criticized the FFF's ruling, arguing it unjustly hampers the player's quest for justice despite earlier favorable decisions.
