PSG: Kylian Mbappe and Club President Nasser Al-Khelaifi Had Huge Heated Screaming Fight After Forward's Farewell Snub

Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe's final home game at Parc des Princes last Sunday, May 12, didn't proceed smoothly.

In addition to losing their Ligue 1 encounter against Toulouse 3-1, the Frenchman also encountered another issue an hour before the match.

Mbappe reportedly had a significant fight with PSG President Nasser Al-Khelaifi inside a room, according to French news outlet Le Parisien.

This dispute arose from the player's failure to thank or even mention the executive during his announcement video declaring his departure from the club, posted on his social media accounts last Friday, May 10.

The 25-year-old expressed gratitude to several individuals in the video, including coaches, sporting directors, stewards, and supporters.

PSG president felt insulted by Mbappe's farewell video

Al-Khelaïfi felt insulted and offended, and sources indicated that the argument was so intense that it escalated to the point where the walls shook. 

The altercation also delayed the team's warm-ups, as they had to take to the pitch four minutes later than usual.

The club was not informed about Mbappe's farewell before it was posted, and they did not prepare any tribute for the forward following the match after being taken aback by the video. 

The 2022 FIFA World Cup Golden Boot winner was booed heavily by fans at Parc des Princes when his name was introduced in the starting lineup.

Mbappe, PSG's all-time leading goalscorer, is widely expected to move to Spanish giants Real Madrid this summer on a free transfer.
