PSG president threatens to kill Real Madrid employee after UCL exit

Paris Saint-Germain’s dramatic UEFA Champions League implosion could have major consequences for the PSG president, Nasser Al-Khelaifi, after he reportedly had a massive post-match meltdown following his side’s 3-1 defeat to Real Madrid on Wednesday.

The French giants were dumped out of Europe’s elite competition after throwing away a two-goal lead in the last-16 tie.

A sensational 17-minute hat-trick from Karim Benzema was enough to break PSG hearts after Kylian Mbappe had fired the French giants into an early lead.

However, a drama ensued at the Bernabeu, with reports claiming that Al-Khelaifi stormed into the officials dressing room after the final whistle.

According to Express, the PSG president, along with sporting director Leonardo, were furious about an alleged foul on Gianluigi Donnarumma from Benzema for the Frenchman’s first goal.

However, the duo actually ended up storming the wrong room; instead coming face to face with Real Madrid delegate, Mejia Devila.

The tense situation escalated and ending up with the police being called after Al-Khelaifi spotted a Real employee filming his every move.

The same report outlines that the PSG chief was incensed and threatened the Real Madrid staff, allegedly screaming “I’m going to kill you” and demanding that the footage be deleted before he was eventually ushered away by his security team.
