BREAKING: Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappe Cleared In Rape Allegations

The Swedish Prosecution Authority has announced the closure of the investigation into the rape allegations against French professional footballer, Kylian Mbappe, citing insufficient evidence to move forward.

Naija News reports that this information has been corroborated by several reports released on Thursday morning.

The allegations had garnered significant international attention, creating a challenging atmosphere for the football star’s career.

Mbappé, who has consistently refuted the claims, has not yet issued an official response to the latest decision.

His legal representatives had previously underscored his dedication to the principles of due process.

It could be recalled that on October 17, 2024, AFP noted that Mbappe was “linked to a rape investigation in Sweden” and that he planned to reserve any further comments for the Swedish judicial authorities “if necessary,” as stated by his attorney, Marie-Alix Canu-Bernard.

“He prioritises providing his explanations, if required, to the Swedish judiciary,” Canu-Bernard told AFP, while strongly condemning “media allegations suggesting that Kylian Mbappé had commented on the events of his trip to Stockholm.”

The case, which began earlier this year, involved accusations from an alleged Stockholm incident. The prosecutor’s decision not to press charges marks the end of months of scrutiny and speculation.
