Kylian Mbappe has been the talk of the town in recent days, especially in terms of off-field issues, and he continues to be so.
From the alleged witchcraft that Mathias Pogba confessed to on behalf of his brother Paul, against the Paris Saint-Germain No.7, to the dispute over his image rights with the French national team. Now, his love life is grabbing attention.
His alleged romance with model Ines Rau
The footballer’s rumoured new relationship has been attracting lots of comments on social media after photos emerged of the PSG star with a woman some think may be his girlfriend.
According to media reports in Italy and France, the forward is reported to have a new partner in the form of none other than Ines Rau, the first transgender model to appear on the cover of Playboy magazine.
The alleged new girlfriend of the footballer is 32 years old and in her autobiography “Woman” she tells of how at the age of 16 she underwent gender reassignment surgery.
In photos together they seem happy
The relationship has not been confirmed or denied by either of them. However, some images circulating on social networks seem to confirm the rumours.
In the images, the two are seen on a boat, chatting happily, while in another of the photos you can see how the footballer is carrying Rau in his arms.
Mbappe in hot water with KFC
Mbappe isn’t worry-free, however, as he could be facing a costly problem for his stance on KFC.
As he has refused to appear in promotional ads for the French national team, now the Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant brand is threatening to sue the player.
Alain Beral, vice-president of KFC France, issued a clear threat to the player and the federation.
“We have paid for something clear. If necessary, we will enforce our rights”.
Beral did not say whether any action would be against Mbappe or the French federation.
KFC have since distanced themselves from his comments in any case.
“KFC France regrets the words that were spoken yesterday and reported in the media this morning. These are personal opinions, but in no way reflect the position of the company,” KFC France said in a statement to Reuters on Wednesday.
“KFC France also wishes to clarify that Alain Beral did not speak on behalf of the company, but in the context of a private conversation during an event related to his functions as president of the National Basketball League.
“The partnership between KFC and the French Football Federation (FFF) has always been a source of pride for the company.
“KFC France has every confidence in the FFF’s ability to find satisfactory solutions for all of its partners and players, including Kylian Mbappe, whose supporters we are among the first in France.”
