Real Madrid and French football superstar Kylian Mbappe has been accused of rape and sexual harassment following an incident at a hotel in Sweden. The alleged incident reportedly took place last Thursday at the Bank Hotel in Stockholm, where Mbappe was staying with friends.
The accusations come shortly after Mbappe publicly slammed a report about the incident as “fake news.” The footballer took to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to deny the claims, sharing a newspaper article on the subject and writing: “Fake News! It’s becoming so predictable, just before the hearing as if by chance.”
According to reports, Mbappe traveled to Sweden last Wednesday and visited the Chez Jolie restaurant and V nightclub before returning to his hotel. It is alleged that the incident took place later that night. A formal report was filed with the police two days after the incident, although no further details have been provided.
This development has sparked widespread attention, as Mbappe continues to deny all accusations. The footballer, one of the biggest names in world football, is expected to address the claims as the investigation unfolds.
