The legal saga surrounding Achraf Hakimi has just taken a sensational new turn. While the Paris Saint-Germain player has been at the center of a particularly high-profile investigation in recent months, a new major player has emerged in the case: Kylian Mbappé. Indeed, the French star was recently interviewed by investigators as a key witness, a hearing whose content is now provoking strong reactions in the media and among fans.
According to several sources close to the investigation, the French striker was summoned to provide clarification on several crucial elements related to the allegations against his teammate and friend. His testimony, described as “direct, precise, and unexpected,” reportedly shed new light on the chronology of events, potentially calling into question some previously recorded statements.
According to the same sources, Mbappé was cooperative and very involved during the hearing, not hesitating to provide details about his personal exchanges with Hakimi in the hours leading up to and following the alleged events. This positioning would have surprised many observers, accustomed to seeing the 2018 world champion remain distant from non-sporting matters.
As soon as this explosive news broke, social media went wild. Within hours, Mbappé’s name had become one of the most talked-about topics in France, Morocco, and several European countries. Some internet users praised the striker’s courage, believing he had demonstrated a rare sense of duty by cooperating with the justice system. Others, however, wondered about the possible consequences of this testimony within the Paris dressing room, as tensions surrounding sensitive cases seem to have been building at PSG since the beginning of the year.
The club has remained silent. Neither the legal department nor the sports management have commented on the matter, systematically referring to “respect for the confidentiality of the investigation.” The same goes for Achraf Hakimi’s lawyer, who refuses to make any public statements but assures that his client “remains calm” and that “the truth will eventually come out.”
It remains to be seen whether other key witnesses will be summoned in the coming weeks. Several names are already circulating in the press, including that of Sergio Ramos, a former Paris dressing room executive and close friend of Hakimi. In any case, Mbappé’s unexpected presence in this affair adds a spectacular new dimension to an already heated case, just months before the Paris Olympics and as PSG continues its race for titles on French and European pitches.
