Madrid. Calm in the midst of a storm: Real Madrid appears serene after the media storm unleashed when it became known that the Swedish prosecutor’s office is investigating a rape that the media in that country relates to the French star Kylian Mbappé.
The club, which has not made an official statement on this matter, is calm about the possible consequences of these accusations, described as “the biggest fake of sports history” by an internal club source contacted by the Afp.
Only one strange move was recorded on Tuesday, when Real Madrid deleted Mbappé’s image from an advertising campaign by kit sponsor Adidas.
When asked about this, the merengue club explained to journalists that Mbappé could not appear in the images due to a clause it has with its sponsor Nike, which is a direct competitor of Adidas.
A plausible explanation, but one that many Internet users questioned since there are other players present in the photos published by Real Madrid who also have a contract with Nike, such as his teammate Eduardo Camavinga or the Spanish basketball player Sergio Llull.
In the midst of this media storm, the captain of the French team, not summoned at his own request by the Blues For the recent international window to recover from his injury to the biceps in his left leg, he spent this week doing individual work at the white club and met with the group in a collective session on Tuesday afternoon.

The coverage intensified on Tuesday afternoon after statements by the Real Madrid forward’s lawyer that were widely reported by sports newspapers. Mark y AS.
Mbappé “is not aware of the extent of the media avalanche, but he is completely calm and does not understand that he could be reproached,” the forward’s lawyer Marie-Alix Canu-Bernard assured the Afp.
“He is stunned to hear that it could affect him. He preferred to go to training and has asked my cabinet that things not remain like this, because it is not possible to allow oneself to be slandered and defamed in this way. For that reason we are going to file a complaint for slander” , he added.
