Tiktukno: summary of today's events in sports, 12.10 (Sport1)

The last 48 hours have been particularly turbulent for Paris Saint-Germain and Kylian Mbappe.

Only two months since he signed a new contract for three more years in the City of Lights, it was announced in Spain and France that the star decided to leave the team already this January.

If that wasn't enough for PSG, a new investigation was published in France today (Wednesday) related to the player and the club, precisely from Mbappe's first years in the French champions.



According to the "Mediapart" publication, the club operated a network of bots, fake users on social networks, in order to lead campaigns against media bodies and even against people from the club - including Mbapa.

Unusual publication in France.

One of the examples from the investigation took place in March 2019, when rumors about the Frenchman's transfer to Real Madrid were in full swing.

The Frenchman said he wants to stay despite another disappointing elimination in the round of 16 of the Champions League (against Manchester United), and the Twitter account "Panama Squad" - which in the investigation is noted as an account that cooperated with the club - congratulated Mbappe for the statement but added that the players "must be quiet and work hard," following the dismissal.



The same account apparently received information from the club, especially regarding the transfer window, in order for it to gain popularity and for the messages it conveys to reach as many surfers as possible.

"Mediapart" contacted PSG when the investigation was published, and the French champion denied the publications: "We never contacted an agency to harm people or entities."
