Kylian Mbappe’s PSG exit has been anything but amicable. The forward fell out with the hierarchy after deciding to not renew his contract last summer.
The Ligue 1 club wanted Real Madrid to pay him one of the bonuses in his contract, but President Florentino Perez did not agree to the suggestion since the player is a free agent. Now, if has come to the forefront that PSG didn’t pay Mbappe his salary for April either, causing lawyers to get involved in the matter.

As per L’Equipe, Mbappe is losing out on a total worth €80 million by leaving as a free agent. However, the loss to PSG might be more considering one of their most prized assets is leaving the club for absolutely nothing.
It was previously reported that Mbappe had turned down a massive loyalty bonus he was owed last summer to help PSG save money. But now, a contrasting report has made the situation more tense.
