"I felt in danger and my instinct was to file a complaint. Football is my life. I knew that if this video came out it was going to be difficult for me with the French team. When he  told me he wanted to talk to me, I did not think he would talk to me about that. When I had that conversation, I came out of the room, I was shocked. I felt that he insisted that I meet with a person who was to act as an intermediary. His trusted person (Karim Zenati). He was very insistent."

He also further added, "It's been six years that we have had this case. I see that everyone is there, almost. Karim is missing. It's a shame, but that's how it is. We have been waiting for six years. We are there for the time it takes for all of this to be behind me."
