According to the "Daily Sport" report, Mbappe has once again put pressure on the French Football Association that he will refuse to participate in the national team photo event to express his dissatisfaction with the use of his image by some of the French Football Association's sponsors.The Paris star had his first clash with the French Football Federation over the issue in March, when he decided not to take part in the national team's commercial photoshoot due to a conflict of interest between advertising brands and sponsors.The French Football Association is reluctant to accept the idea of players retaining their own image rights, arguing that when players enter the national team, the image rights are handed over to the Football Association.This caused Mbappe to miss some of the national team's shooting activities. Mbappe issued a statement saying "regrettably there is no agreement on this issue".Mbappe does not want to be associated with fast food or gambling, and through his agent Delphine Verheiden, he has been asking the Football Association to change the way image rights are arranged.A document drawn up in 2010 said each player could receive 25,000 euros per game for the national team, in exchange for the French Football Federation to sell their image rights to sponsors. The French Football Federation said that plan would not change until the World Cup in Qatar.(Ivan)
