Kylian Mbappe's lawyer has said that the reported rape and sexual harassment claim against the star has left him 'flabbergasted'.
The France and Real Madrid forward - who denies the allegations - was visiting Sweden with friends from Wednesday to Friday last week, staying at the Bank Hotel in the city centre.
On Monday, Mbappe blasted a report from Aftonbladet as 'fake news' about an alleged rape at the hotel that took place on Thursday evening.
However, Swedish newspaper Expressen later claimed it is Mbappe who is being investigated by police after allegations were made against the Real Madrid star.
Now, the 25-year-old's lawyer has hit back, insisting Mbappe is left bewildered by the accusations that he continues to strongly refute.

'We're talking about a complaint being lodged, and at this time we don't know against whom,' said Marie-Alix Canu-Bernard, speaking on French TV's TF1. 'A complaint doesn't reveal anything.
'Mbappe is never alone. He is never alone, so he would be exposed to a situation where he would be taking a risk. That totally rules out any wrongdoing. It's an absolute certainty.
'He's particularly serene, but he's flabbergasted by all the media hype. He has no idea what he's being accused of. If there is an investigation, he will submit to Swedish justice. But he is calm because he has nothing to reproach himself for.'
Mbappe had earlier that night visited the Chez Jolie restaurant, before heading to the V nightclub and finally back to his hotel in a black van with his entourage.
But Mbappe shared a newspaper article on the alleged rape on X on Monday and wrote: 'Fake News! It's becoming so predictable, just before the hearing as if by chance,' referring to a hearing as part of his fight against his former club PSG over £46million in unpaid wages and bonuses that is set to take place today.
Nevertheless, according to French journalist Romain Molina, Real held a crisis meeting surrounding the allegations on Monday evening.

Meanwhile, on Monday, Mbappe's entourage had told AFP in a statement: 'Today, a new slanderous rumour is starting to spread across the web from the Swedish media Aftonbladet.
'These accusations are completely false and irresponsible, and their propagation is unacceptable.
'In order to put an end to this methodical destruction of (the) image (of Kylian Mbappe), all necessary legal actions will be taken to re-establish the truth and pursue any person or media involved in the moral harassment and defamatory treatment that Kylian Mbappe is suffering repeatedly,' the statement added.
Investigators and a forensic unit were at the alleged crime scene on Monday, according to Aftonbladet.
The newspaper reported that the alarm over the alleged rape was raised when the woman 'sought care' at a local hospital.

Stockholm police issued a similar statement to MailOnline via spokesperson Carina Skagerlind: 'The police can neither confirm or deny such a case.'
