Since signing for his boyhood club Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappe has not been the same player from PSG, and there are many reasons for it: he obviously didn‘t settle properly, the French league and PSG are not as big as La Liga and the pressure is much bigger and then there was this rape lawsuit case against him. Or it was, since it was officially dropped, due to ‘lack of evidence‘. Lawyers for the World Cup-winning forward were told there would be no further action taken against the 25-year-old following a visit to Sweden in October this year.🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: The accusations against Kylian Mbappé for rape in Sweden have been DROPPED.🇫🇷❌🇸🇪The Swedish justice system have announced that the case has been abandoned due to a lack of evidence.🗞️ @RMCsport pic.twitter.com/phow0ugE7O— Football Tweet ⚽ (@Football__Tweet) December 12, 2024 “During the course of the investigation, there has been a designated person suspected on reasonable grounds of rape and two cases of sexual assault, but my assessment is that the evidence is not sufficient to proceed and the investigation is therefore closed. The designated person has not been notified of suspicion of a crime” Marina Chirakova, a prosecutor in the Scandinavian city, said in a statement released on Thursday.Mbappe had a ‘consensual relationship’ in StockholmBut since the prosecutor didn‘t even mentioned Kylian Mbappe in her statement, nor did she do that at the beginning of the investigation, the big question remains – was the French striker involved in this case at all?”I maintain and I reiterate that at this stage, it is very possible that it was absolutely not him who was concerned by the complaint which a priori exists. That is the only thing we know. The Swedish press, which will certainly continue to do so so as not to be forgotten, nevertheless allowed itself to anticipate a certain number of things which were neither remotely nor remotely in the remarks of the Swedish Prosecutor,” Mbappe‘s lawer Marie-Alix Canu-Bernard said on TF1.Mbappe‘s Stockholm trip and the rape accusationsThe Swedish justice system has confirmed the filing of a complaint for rape in the hotel where Real Madrid’s French international Kylian Mbappé stayed on the night of October 10-11 in Stockholm. It still has nothing to do with the player, but the headlines kept coming up. SVT reported that Mbappe was the target of the investigation, following his two-day visit to the city. Sweden’s Prosecution Authority said that the alleged rape had occurred at a hotel on October 10 but did not name a suspect. According to Aftonbladet, Mbappe and his entourage dined at a restaurant before going to a nightclub. Real striker and the group left Sweden on Friday. Aftonbladet said the complaint was filed on Saturday after the alleged victim had sought medical attention. But now, the matter is over and Mbappe is free and without charges, like he was all the time anyway.LA LIGA – MATCHDAY 17Friday23:00: (3.20) Valladolid (3.10) Valencia (2.40)Saturday16:00: (2.90) Espanyol (3.20) Osasuna (2.70)18:15: (2.40) Mallorca (3.20) Girona (3.35)20:30: (2.25) Sevilla (3.50) Celta (3.40)23:00: (5.90) Rayo Vallecano (4.00) Real Madrid (1.58)Sunday16:00: (1.42) Atl.Madrid (4.20) Getafe (9.00)18:15: (3.50) Alaves (3.20) Ath.Bilbao (2.20)20:30: (1.42) Sociedad (4.30) Las Palmas (8.50)20:30: (1.85) Villareal (3.70) Betis (4.70)23:00: (1.15) Barcelona (8.00) Leganes (16.0)***odds are subject to change***
