Very active on Instagram, Thursday April 6, 2023, Kylian Mbappé took the floor to protest against a promotional video published by his club. Indeed, following the publication of a clip to launch Paris Saint-Germain’s renewal campaign for the 2023-2024 season, the striker wanted to express himself to let it be known that he was “not in agree with this video.
The reason ? The 24-year-old world champion has not given his consent for his image to be used for advertising purposes. “At no time was I informed of the content of the interview with my interlocutor. It looked like a basic interview at a club marketing day. I disagree with this posted video. That’s why I fight for individual image rights. PSG is a big club and a big family, but it is certainly not Kylian Saint-Germain.the attacker said in a message.
Words which obviously did not take long to react to football enthusiasts starting with Daniel Riolo. The editorialist RMC Sport has spoke in stride to indicate that he did not understand Kylian Mbappé’s public rant against PSG. “That Mbappé freaks out on the final result, why not, adds Riolo. But for him to come and shoot his club this way on social networks, it doesn’t make sense. He can’t do that. It’s very paradoxical, he says: ‘I don’t want to talk about Kylian Saint-Germain’ but by doing that, he is Kylian Saint-Germain because he is above the club to the point of torpedoing the club publicly. That the club deserves to be torpedoed publicly because nothing works, it’s true. But for the team’s star player to say so, it’s not normal,” he dropped in the after football.

“Let them all stop with their egos!”
An opinion generally shared by Christophe Dugarry who for his part declared: “I’m sick of all these susceptible. We put it at the center of communication, of marketing. The club should have warned him, ok, but do you think it’s worth a message on social networks to show off your club? Let him stop! Let them all stop with their egos! They are bad ! They lose matches one after the other! Let them play on the field, let them show what they are worth. He doesn’t need to do all this acting because he hasn’t endorsed a commercial. We do not care ! He wants to take care of everything! Marketing, communication, he chooses the sporting director, he chooses the players with whom he wants to play. Stop! Play ball ! », That is what is said…
