With a boycott, Mbappé caused a revolution in the French team
Thanks to this boycott, the 24-year-old attacker had provoked the revision of the inherent convention of image rights which binds the FFF to the players in stride. Since then, Kylian Mbappé has continued his fight. And his mother did not fail to reveal the origin of this fight led by the player of the PSG.
“That was the trigger”
” To quickly explain the choice not to descend (to participate in marketing operations), because it could be perceived as a strike or a whim, we have been discussing image rights with the FFF since the 2018 World Cup. For three years, we tried to find an agreement which did not come, then came Euro 2021 where he missed this penalty where we were eliminated. More than a million tweets follow, mostly racist, without any official support for Kylian. So it was a very difficult time to be, and the icing on the cake is the next day, we find ourselves in a supermarket, Kylian in life size, individual, making an advertisement, ‘it’s time to pack our bags , we go back to the house. It was the trigger ” has explained Fayza Lamari at the microphone of Public Senate this Saturday.
