PARIS - Kylian Mbappe is to take legal action for libel after he was linked to a Swedish rape investigation, his lawyer Marie-Alix Canu-Bernard said Tuesday.

France captain Mbappe, the lawyer said, had "asked my office not to leave things as they are because it is impossible to allow yourself to be slandered and defamed in this way."

"This is why we are going to file a complaint for libel," the lawyer said. - AFP
