Images from video surveillance cameras at the Marcel-Picot stadium made it possible to identify the individual. “We have only identified one person. We have the images. There is only one individual who was arrested. We called for witnesses, we did not get any feedback to tell us the opposite. The Red Star players also identified an individual who was making gestures.”added Mr. El Yaagoubi, before continuing.

“The procedure is no longer with us, it is with the courts. We have filed a complaint at the police station”, he concluded. The disciplinary committee of the French Football Federation will also open a procedure on this matter, the FFF announced Thursday evening.
