The younger generation is no longer ready to compromise when the older one saw it as a question of zeros. My job is to ensure that we do not dispossess athletes of their image rights, which are fundamental to personality." "I listen to the player and help him unfold what he thinks. Some want to pass me off as the great puppeteer, but that is up to them. Me and my client, we know what is true." Following the confirmation that Mbappe was not taking part in the official photoshoot, Beral told the Sports Business Club website that the company are considering legal action. However, he did not clarify if the action would be against the player or FFF for not sticking to the contract.

The statement continued: "The partnership between KFC and the French Football Federation (FFF) has always been a source of pride for the company.
