Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappe was a victim of online hacks, after his X account was taken over by an intruder. The hacker shared multiple controversial posts on ‘X’, one of them even naming Cristiano Ronaldo as a ‘GOAT’ while labeling Lionel Messi as a ‘midget’.

An unnamed intruder took control of the 25-year-old Frenchman’s X account, which has more than 14 million followers. The incident took place in the early hours on August 29th, when a hacker, posing as the player, started posting numerous messages, alarming his followers and the media alike. The posts were however removed from Kylian Mbappe‘s account, as soon as the ‘hack’ was reversed and the account was restored back to its original owner.

This was shared alongside pictures of Messi in tears that sought to provoke fans and defame the French star. Another post falsely claimed Mbappe in support for Palestine, while controversially calling out Israel.
