Kylian Mbappé is suffering. The best illustration is undoubtedly his disastrous performance on Wednesday on the Anfield lawn. Yet repositioned in the left lane, the French world champion delivered one of his worst matches in the Champions League and his state of form is not without concern. And more than the physical, it’s the head that seems affected.

Kylian is going through an extremely difficult period which will unfortunately last. He needs psychological, physical help…”confided a relative in the columns of
Parisiananother confiding to L’Equipe: “ He is psychologically exhausted. With everything he has taken in six months, his broken nose, his dispute with PSG, the history of Sweden, the head cannot remain insensitive and neither can the body. »

Seen from Spain, the rape affair which broke out after his trip to Stockholm in October would indeed weigh heavily on the Frenchman’s difficulties.. “We have to realize what he experienced after his escapade in Sweden. It was violent. He found himself accused of rape, made the headlines all over the world and even if he is innocent, he is completely in limbo since the Swedish justice system refuses to say anything about it. investigation. It’s obviously heavy,” said journalist Juanma Rodriguez on the set of El Chiringuito.

Kylian Mbappé must be patient

And Kylian Mbappé risks remaining in the fog for a long time. “ The prosecutor will send a press release when she has new information to provide.He is happy to respond to the prosecution when asked. However, the investigation continues. Even if his lawyer, Me Marie-Alix Canu-Bernard, claims to have no news of the progress of the procedure. Nothing surprising for Johanna Franden, correspondent in Paris for the Swedish media Aftonbladet.

“It is in the hands of the Prosecutor, who is known to be very strict. She doesn’t give up and gives very few details, she recently told Foot Mercato. The young woman’s clothes are analyzed for DNA and it takes time. It is not because it is Mbappé, who is perhaps targeted, that they will move the file to the front of the queue. It is not known whether Mbappé was heard by the police. They have no interest in this leaking into the press. »

“Legally speaking, as far as the continuation of the case is concerned, it will either be dismissed, which is quite likely because it is often the case in this type of story where there are no witnesses. It’s word against word, she added. Or he may be interviewed by the police and temporarily taken into custody. He can be heard in Spain, the Swedish police can issue a warrant for him to be questioned. But they are not obliged to say anything. It could even have already happened and we don’t know about it. Afterwards the case has not yet been closed without further action because we imagine that Mbappé would have spoken about it. There is no communication from him, nor from his lawyer. »
