The conflict between Kylian Mbappe (Real Madrid) and Paris Saint-Germain is far from over.

Mbappe reportedly reported an unpaid wage issue to the legal committee of the French Professional Football League (LFP) on the 8th. Earlier in June, he also sent an official notice to Paris Saint-Germain demanding unpaid wages. Mbappe sent a letter to the French Football Association (FFF) and the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) to discuss the issue. The letter was forwarded to the person in charge of the UEFA Club Licensing Committee within FFF.

Real Madrid announced the signing of Mbappe on its official channel on June 4. Real Madrid agreed to a contract with Mbappe. He said he will become a Real Madrid player for the next five years and has strengthened his team's squad by recruiting Mbappe, a six-time top scorer, including his most goals scored (44 goals) in a season at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) last season. As a result, Mbappe left Paris Saint-Germain without a transfer fee as a free agent and played for Real Madrid until 2029. With the announcement of the contract, Mbappe posted on his SNS, "'Dream came true. My 'dream team' I'm happy and proud to join Real Madrid, and no one knows how excited I am right now. I can't wait to meet Real Madrid fans. He then released a picture of his childhood playing in Real Madrid's uniform and training suit, proving that he has been a `real fan' for a long time.
The Mbappe transfer scandal began last summer. Mbappe told PSG that he would not renew his contract. The contract period for Mbappe and PSG was until June 30, 2024. PSG, which could have released Mbappe without earning a single penny, continued a boring tug-of-war. He threatened not to let the game play, and at the same time offered the highest annual salary ever to renew the contract. In the meantime, Saudi Arabia's Al Hilal made a huge transfer offer of 300 million euros in transfer fees and 700 million euros in annual salary.

Mbappe all refused. Real Madrid was the only one in his head. Mbappe signed a two-year contract renewal with PSG in the summer of 2022. At first, he was likely to go to Real Madrid as a free agent. Mbappe called Real Madrid a 'Dream Club' early on, and Real Madrid also went all-in on Mbappe's recruitment. It was an all-time twist. PSG made a last-minute spurt. It offered an unprecedented condition. It offered 1 million pounds (about 1.5 billion won) per week and 100 million pounds (about 157 billion won) of the Sinning bonus alone. It is reported that it includes the composition of the team and the right to appoint a coach. On top of that, French President Emmanuel Macron and former President Nicola Charcoge also said that 'national loss' should be prevented.
This time was different. Mbappe finally made it to Real Madrid. Real Madrid did not disclose the rest of the details except for the contract period with Mbappe, but according to foreign media, the annual salary is 15 million euros (about 22.4 billion won) and the down payment alone is 150 million euros (about 224.2 billion won). Real Madrid, which had all the world's best players such as Luis Figo, Zinedine Zidane, and Cristiano Ronaldo in the past, also showed amazing skills and possessed Mbappe without paying a penny. In addition to making bold bets, he also put a lot of effort into Mbappe's power in portrait rights.
Mbappe appeared at a pre-match press conference against Luxembourg on 5 June. It was the first public outing since the announcement of the transfer to Real Madrid. He "Now it's officially announced. I will be a Real player for the next five seasons. It is a great joy, a dream has come true, and I am liberated." Then "It's a good day for me, but I have to get back to a reasonable matter. I'm in charge as a French captain, and my transfer has overshadowed it. I know it may not be fair, but I will only answer questions about the national team"I drew the line.

But apart from not being asked about Real Madrid, Mbappe has directly addressed the conflict he had with PSG earlier this season. Mbappe says "You can see from my face that I am very happy. My playing time was reduced at the end of the season, and everyone knows why, but I'm going to try to regain my form, try to win with the squad." Then "It was already predicted because I was told in a violent way that I would not be able to play many games. Luis Enrique, Luis Campos saved me, and I wouldn't be able to get on the field without them. I also understand the criticism. It won't be the same as this year in the next season."
Finally, it is unfair to say that you were not happy in Paris. There were things that made me unhappy, but I wasn't unhappy.' Mbappe crossed the irreversible river with PSG.
PSG didn't stay put either. Speaking to AFP, Chairman Nasser Al-Khelaifi has never made a decision on the team. Even Enrique said so'But Mbappe's words are being reported as if they were true,' he said, expressing his discomfort.
But the conflict intensified. Paris Saint-Germain's unpaid bills have been revealed. ESPN reported on the 6th that `PSG has not yet given Mbappe a bonus and a two-month salary in 2024' and `why Mbappe expressed dissatisfaction with PSG at a press conference after moving to Real Madrid.' Then 'Mbappe should receive more February bonuses and April-May salaries from PSG. 'We still don't know if we'll pay the June salary as well,' he said, adding that the PSG felt Mbappe, who moved to Real Madrid, was ungrateful. The amount Mbappe did not receive is reported to be as much as 80 million euros and 119.4 billion won in Korean money.

Mbappe once again pulled his sword after joining Real Madrid. If the LFP examines the matter and determines that Paris Saint-Germain is responsible, the LFP can impose sanctions on Paris Saint-Germain to ban the recruitment of players until the situation normalizes. If UEFA also takes the issue seriously, the club's license may be revoked. Clubs with problems such as wage arrears may have their licenses revoked. UCL qualification could also be lost. If they lose their place, Paris Saint-Germain will be hit hard in terms of profitability next season. Paris Saint-Germain is already not free from financial fair play rules.
Lawyers hired by Mbappe reportedly described "If there is no sports committee resolution on the matter, he will go to the employment tribunal." Paris Saint-Germain's position on this is clear. Mbappe did not pay bonuses and wages because he promised to give up the amount if he left Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent. A source close to the owner said "Mbappe has repeatedly promised to make sure the club is protected if they leave Paris Saint-Germain free." Paris Saint-Germain "I don't want to make any comment on this matter, which has been constructively discussed for months. The club is looking carefully into this matter.'
Mbappe, who had a huge joining ceremony for Real Madrid, made a soft landing by scoring his debut goal in the UEFA Super Cup against Atalanta. However, the conflict with his former team, Paris Saint-Germain, is expected to rise to the surface once again, affecting his early performance.
