Rabat – Kylian Mbappe’s X account was reportedly hacked on Wednesday night, leading to a series of tweets that have caused a stir in the football world.
The hacker used the account to praise Manchester United and endorse Cristiano Ronaldo as the greatest football player of all time, while dismissing Lionel Messi.
“Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest football player of all time. The midget [Lionel Messi] is NOT my goat,” one of the controversial posts read.
The tweets also included comments about Mbappe’s supposed stance on not returning to Paris Saint-Germain and criticisms of other teams. The hacker also included posts like “Manchester is Red” and described Tottenham as “s***.”
He also made posts saying “Free Palestine” and “F*** Israel.”
One of the posts made was about the “$MBAPPE” cryptocurrency token, which the hacker falsely advertised as a legitimate investment opportunity endorsed by Mbappe. “I am giving back to my community. I support Crypto and I believe you should too! All Crypto sent to my address will be sent back to you doubled!” the post read.
A trader lost over $1 million as a result of the fake cryptocurrency token, Coin Telegraph reported. Within an hour, the token’s value collapsed from over $1 million to just $9,200, resulting in significant financial losses for investors.
The offensive tweets have since been deleted, but not before they sparked significant chaos. Mbappe, who recently made the high-profile move from PSG to Real Madrid, has faced a challenging start to his season. Despite this, Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has expressed confidence in the French star’s ability to perform.
This incident is not the first time Mbappe’s social media has been compromised. Back in late 2019, his X account was also hacked, with his display name altered and a hacker”s message left in his bio.
