Monaco deny allegation Rybolovlev to receive €124m from Mbappe deal

Mediapart's allegation that Dmitry Rybolovlev will receive €124m from Kylian Mbappe's Monaco to PSG switch has been denied

Monaco have denied the claim that club owner and president Dmitry Rybolovlev allegedly stands to receive €124 million (£108m/$142m) from Kylian Mbappe's transfer to Paris Saint-Germain, as reported by Mediapart, the online investigative journal in France.

Mediapart's report is based on documents it claims to have received from whistleblowing platform 'Football Leaks', though Monaco have branded it "misleading".

According to the French news outlet, sums of €77m (£67m/$88m) and €47m (£41m/$54m) from the €145m (£126m/$166m) Monaco obtained from PSG for Mbappe were allegedly designated for Rybolovlev in July 2018 and June 2019 respectively.
