  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Mbappe and PSG have both appeared before an LFP complaints committee regarding the striker's allegations that he is owed around €55 million ($60.6m) in unpaid wages from the French club. The complaints committee has now delivered a verdict on the situation and "recommended mediation" for the two parties in a bid to end the dispute. The decision has gone down well with PSG.

• WHAT PSG SAID

  A club statement read: "Paris Saint-Germain is very pleased with today's two-hour hearing before the Commission. The Club recalled that the player has made clear, repeated public and private commitments that must be respected, having been afforded unprecedented benefits by the Club over seven fantastic years in Paris. In the light of the Club's oral and documented arguments, the Commission insisted on mediation between the parties, which Paris Saint-Germain has been seeking for many months. The Commission has now invited the player to consider the mediation process.”

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Relations between PSG and Mbappe have been fraught for some time, meaning mediation may be a difficult way forward. Mbappe could also refuse to mediate with his former club and take the matter to court instead. The France star's mother, Fayza Lamari, has already said the striker is preparing to file a lawsuit against his former club regarding his alleged unpaid wages.

  WHAT NEXT FOR MBAPPE

  Mbappe has since moved on to Real Madrid and will hope to pick up where he left off with Los Blancos after a less than impressive international break. The forward scored his first La Liga goals for his new club against Real Betis last time out and returns to action on Saturday against Real Sociedad.
