Mbappe against French Football Federation, not participating in commercial shoot

According to the "Daily Sport" report, the French national team is preparing to take a group photo of the players, but Mbappe refused to participate in the national team's photo activity to express his dissatisfaction with the use of his image by some sponsors of the French Football Association. This is not the first time Mbappe has had a dispute with the French Football Association over image rights.


In March of this year, Mbappe decided not to participate in the national team's commercial shoot due to a conflict of interest between advertising brands and sponsors. The president of the French Football Association had discussed with French players, and Mbappe's lawyers said they would not make concessions on portrait rights.


Every French player must sign a portrait rights agreement with the French Football Association before playing for the national team. If he violates the rules, he will be punished. However, Mbappe does not want his portrait rights to be abused by sponsors, so he protested in March this year. Later, the French Football Association rejected Mbappe's proposal to revise the relevant agreement.


At the beginning, he did not go to Real Madrid because he failed to obtain the absolute rights of portrait rights, and finally stayed at Paris Saint-Germain. It can be seen that the right to portrait has always been an issue that Mbappe attaches great importance to.


This time, he still refused to shoot in protest. Mbappe expressed regret that there was no agreement on the issue.
