As the main image of PSG, the Parisian club used kylian mbappe to promote the team’s subscribers for the next season, but it seems that the French footballer did not like this action at all, stating through his social networks that he was not asked for permission to use his image.
“I just saw the club’s subscription campaign for the 2023/24 season. At no time was I informed of its content. with my interlocutor. It seemed like when I did a basic interview at a club marketing day. I do not agree with this published video ”, he started commenting on the world champion with France in 2018.
“That’s why I fight for individual image rights. PSG is a great club and a great family, but it is definitely not Kylian Saint-Germain, ”the Frenchman ended up writing in a story on his official Instagram account.
PSG took advantage of Mbappé’s great media hook to include him as the main image in their campaign, in which youngsters from the subsidiaries also appear and no other first-team player, not even Lionel Messi or Neymarwho are also big world stars.
This is not the first time that the 24-year-old has spoken out about his image rights, in the past with the French national team complained about their image being used to endorse fast food and soft drinkswhich he stated that he does not consume and therefore does not feel right that they use his face to promote them.
Even when Mbappé renewed with PSG last year, one of the strengths of the contract was the transfer of 100% of the image rights to the footballerso the use of it in this campaign without consulting him, made the French even more angry.
