姆巴佩恐面临“天文数字”赔偿,专家:潜在商业损失至少1亿美元
近日,法国球星姆巴佩因访谈中的涉华不当言论,引发中国球迷强烈不满。事发后,商业端的连锁反应快速显现。
French football star Kylian Mbappe is confronting a significant commercial crisis following remarks sparking anger in China, with potential long-term losses that analysts estimate could exceed $100 million.
这场风波里,姆巴佩的商业价值缩水了多少?
多家头部品牌集体解约,稳定商业收入损失近四成
据国是直通车报道,过去几年,姆巴佩在国内的代言阵容几乎覆盖了快消、饮品、乳制品多个核心赛道,是欧洲足坛在中国市场商业开发最顺利的现役球星之一。
Over the past few years, Kylian Mbappe built one of the most extensive endorsement portfolios of any active European footballer in China, spanning fast-moving consumer goods, beverages, and dairy products. He was widely regarded as one of the most commercially successful active players in the Chinese market.
但这场风波爆发后,姆巴佩恐面临难以想象的“天文数字”赔偿。
英国《金融时报》第一时间将这起事件定性为“顶级体育明星触碰区域市场红线的典型失误”。
报道指出,姆巴佩此前在中国市场的年度代言收入接近2200万欧元(约合1.63亿人民币),占他个人全球商业总收入的38%。
其中,根据粗略估算,姆巴佩在中国国内光是蒙牛、妙可蓝多、小红书、补水啦等核心代言,合约总额就逼近5000万元人民币。
According to reports citing the Financial Times, Mbappe's annual endorsement income from China was approximately €22 million (about 163 million yuan), accounting for 38 percent of his total global commercial revenue.
His core Chinese endorsements — including Mengniu, Milkground, Xiaohongshu, and Dongpeng Beverage's "Bushuila" — were reportedly worth close to 50 million yuan in total contract value.
这次多家头部品牌集体解约,直接让他损失了近四成的稳定商业收入,且后续几乎没有任何挽回的可能。此外,很多之前和皇马有过初步接触,还没有正式落地的国内品牌合作,大概率也会重新评估风险,选择暂时观望,甚至直接取消合作计划。
Following the controversy, several major Chinese brands announced the termination of their partnerships, effectively wiping out nearly 40 percent of his stable commercial income.
另据美国知名体育商业媒体《Sportico》数据分析,姆巴佩本赛季的全球赞助收入约为3000万美元(约合2亿人民币),其中仅中国品牌贡献的代言费就占至少1/3。
体育经济专家更直言,一旦姆巴佩彻底失去中国市场的长期商业机会,未来的潜在商业损失“至少1亿美元”(约合6.67亿人民币)起步。
Sports business outlet Sportico estimated Mbappe's global sponsorship income this season at around $30 million, with Chinese brands contributing at least one-third.
Sports economists cited in the report warned that if Mbappé permanently loses access to the Chinese market, his potential commercial losses could start at a minimum of $100 million.
构成重大违约,代言公司或可追讨巨额违约金
除了代言收入或将缩水,姆巴佩所面临的,还有代言公司解约后产生的违约金。
依据我国《民法典》合同编,东鹏特饮等签约中国公司有权单方解除代言合同,并可依约追讨巨额违约金。鉴于此类代言金额及违约条款通常较高,姆巴佩恐将面临重大经济损失。
“品牌终止合作,其实是品牌单方解约行为。”北京策略(南京)律师事务所合伙人朱雪指出,合同里大概约定了代言人不得伤害民族感情或者引发重大负面舆情给品牌造成冲击。姆巴佩违约,品牌可以合法解除合同,再根据合同约定的违约金条款或者代言人实际行为给品牌造成的损失,要求代言人赔偿。
Beyond lost endorsement revenue, legal exposure remains. Chinese lawyers quoted in the report indicated that brands may invoke morality clauses in their contracts to terminate deals unilaterally and pursue penalty payments, including the return of paid fees and compensation for advertising losses. However, enforcement against a foreign national could face practical obstacles in cross-border litigation.
不止个人,皇马俱乐部亦受影响
西班牙《马卡报》认为,姆巴佩事件对皇马俱乐部也造成了影响。姆巴佩与皇马的合同规定,球员保留近80%的肖像权收入。据福布斯报道,姆巴佩年收入约为1亿欧元,其中3000万欧元来自赞助合同。
由于大量中国企业与姆巴佩终止商业合作关系,皇马也会损失一部分利润。此外,皇马国际商品销售额的10%到15%来自中国,而姆巴佩的球衣是其中最畅销的商品。
Real Madrid is also exposed to the potential financial fallout. The Spanish club owns 20 percent of Mbappe's image rights. With Chinese merchandise accounting for 10 to 15 percent of Real Madrid's international sales, and Mbappe jerseys among the top sellers, the club stands to lose a share of profits, according to Spanish outlet Marca.
《马卡报》还提到在中国一些主要的足球论坛、社区内已经出现了公开抵制购买姆巴佩官方产品的活动。此外,西甲联赛如果因央视停播而受到影响,皇家马德里也不能幸免。西甲联赛的收入将减少,这意味着分配给甲级和乙级俱乐部的资金也会相应减少。
Marca further noted that Chinese football forums have seen public calls to boycott Mbappe merchandise, and Xiaohongshu has begun removing content related to the player. The report also suggested that if La Liga viewership in China is affected by the suspension of broadcasts on CCTV, Real Madrid would not be immune from the broader revenue impact on the league.
