Monaco have fired off a statement over Mbappé, saying they'll report other clubs to FIFA if they continue to try to tap up the young striker without their permission.

Clubs contacting Mbappé

The rising interest in the player has seen several clubs make contact with the striker or his entourage in recent months, something that has enraged Monaco who are keen to hold onto the player.

Mbappé has a contract until 2019, and no club can speak to him without Monaco's permission.

Full statement from AS Monaco

AS MONACO regretfully notice that « important » European football clubs made contacts with Kylian Mbappé (and his entourage) without its authorization.


AS MONACO want to remind to these clubs that such actions are contrary to the article 211 of the Administrative regulation of the French Football League (Ligue de Football Professionnel) and to the article 18.3 of the Regulation of the Status and the Transfer of the Players of FIFA.

To put an end to this unacceptable situation, AS Monaco consider asking the French Football League (Ligue de Football Professionnel) and the FIFA to commit disciplinary procedures against clubs offenders.
