<p>The Real Madrid star spoke about the case publicly for the first time in an interview that aired Sunday on French TV station Canal Plus.</p>
<p>Several Swedish media reported in October that Mbappe was the subject of a rape investigation following a visit to Stockholm during time off from playing for Madrid and France. At the time Mbappe&rsquo;s legal team dismissed those reports as false.</p>

<p>&ldquo;I was surprised and I still am surprised, by the way. These are things that come into your life like that, you can&rsquo;t see them coming,&rdquo; Mbappe told Canal Plus.</p>
<p>&ldquo;It&rsquo;s just incomprehension. I don&rsquo;t think it weighed on me in the sense that I have never considered myself involved,&rdquo; he added.</p>
<p>Mbappe added that he &ldquo;would go&rdquo; to Sweden if ever he were summoned but that he has not been contacted by authorities.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Listen, I haven&rsquo;t received anything, no summons, nothing,&rdquo; he told Canal Plus. &ldquo;The Swedish government has not said anything, so I&rsquo;m not concerned [involved].&rdquo;</p>
