Kylian Mbappe was "shocked" to see his name linked to a Swedish rape investigation and the Real Madrid and France star will take legal action for libel, his lawyer told AFP on Tuesday. Mbappe's lawyer, Marie-Alix Canu-Bernard, insisted that the captain of the French national team was "at ease" because "he has done nothing wrong", after media reports in Sweden said the player was a suspect following a visit with friends to Stockholm. A Swedish prosecutor said earlier Tuesday that a rape investigation had been opened without mentioning Mbappe.
