Mbappe’s X account hacked: Real Madrid star caught in online chaos

French football sensation Kylian Mbappe’s X account (formerly Twitter) was hacked early Thursday, leading to a series of controversial tweets that have since been deleted.

The Real Madrid forward, who recently made a high-profile switch from Paris Saint-Germain, found himself at the center of a social media storm as fans and followers reacted to the unexpected posts.

One of the most talked-about tweets involved Mbappe seemingly taking sides in the long-standing Cristiano Ronaldo versus Lionel Messi debate.

The hacked account posted a picture of Messi crying, accompanied by the caption, “Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest football player of all time. This midget is not my goat.”

The post sparked widespread reactions, with some fans shocked at the harsh words, while others immediately suspected foul play.

The hacker didn’t stop there. They went on to stir the pot with a cheeky comment about Manchester United. After labeling a Manchester United fan, Trey, as having the “best account on ft,” the hacker teased a potential move to the Red Devils, writing, “2028 broski.”

This playful hint at a future transfer added fuel to the already heated speculation about Mbappe’s long-term plans.

Chelsea fans weren’t spared either. The hacker posted, “Chelsea are washed, g,” responding to claims that Mbappe is a fan of the London club. This jab at the Blues only added to the drama, leaving Chelsea supporters fuming.

Fans were quick to react. A user named #haiwe_xtm commented, “Seriously hacked account. There’s no way that’s Mbappe bro.”

Another user, #Big_5ve, echoed the sentiment, tweeting, “People with knowledge literally know Mbappe will never tweet something like this.”

While Mbappe’s media team worked to regain control of the account, the incident highlighted the vulnerability of even the most high-profile social media users.

One fan, #RackiRMA, expressed frustration, saying, “This is getting out of hand. What is his media team doing?”

The episode comes at a time when Mbappe is adjusting to life at Real Madrid. Despite scoring in the UEFA Super Cup victory over Atlanta, he has yet to find the back of the net in La Liga.

Fans will hope this social media mishap doesn’t distract the star from his on-field duties as he continues to settle into his new club.
