He lives French national team A new crisis is added to the Paul case Pogba And union president Noel Le Graet, who is under investigation for sending sexually suggestive text messages to female employees of the union.
The issue of Kylian Mbappe’s photo rights is on the line again, but it is a crisis that cannot be compared in terms of importance to extortion and sexual misconduct, and the fact that the best player in the “roosters” battalion is unhappy, does not make the situation the best for the French Football Federation.
The timing of this dispute is also a problem, as the “roosters” are only two months away from the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, and they will enter the tournament in order to preserve their world crown that they won in Russia 2018.
In a statement, according to “Marca”, on Monday, Mbappe confirmed that he would not attend the photo session of the Federation scheduled for Tuesday, after Le Graet himself revealed to “L’Equipe” that nothing had changed regarding the player’s image rights until the World Cup.
For his part, the official account of the French Federation published a statement on Twitter, in which he wrote: “After talks in the presence of the executives of the federation, the director of marketing, the president of the federation and the coach, the French Football Federation undertakes as soon as possible to review the agreement regarding the image rights of its players.”
He added, “The federation is pleased to work on setting guidelines for a new agreement that guarantees its interests, taking into account the legitimate concerns and convictions expressed unanimously by the players.”
Disagreements between Mbappe and Al-Ittihad began last March, when the striker decided not to leave his room in Chateau de Clairefontaine (the training headquarters of the French national team), due to the participation of the entire team in a session with one of the union’s sponsors.
