An investigation into alleged rape and sexual assault in Stockholm which Swedish media said targeted Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe has been closed due to insufficient evidence, the Swedish prosecutor said Thursday. 


The 25-year-old French star visited the Swedish capital October 9-11. Sweden’s prosecution authority announced on October 15 that it was investigating an incident that occurred at an upscale Stockholm hotel on October 10, without mentioning the suspect by name. Several Swedish media outlets identified Mbappe as the suspect.
