She doesn’t want to stop there. The French international of PSG, Kheira Hamraoui, appealed to a bailiff, Friday, September 9, at the club’s training center, in Bougival (Yvelines). The Paris Saint-Germain midfielder, victim of a violent attack last November, who is still under investigation, has wished to have her current situation recorded by a bailiff, in order to have her recognized in court.
According to information published in the press, Tuesday September 13, of which franceinfo: sport was able to have confirmation, Hamraoui is “sidelined from the life of the team for almost six weeks” and no longer participates in collective training. The player, under contract with the capital club until June 2023, therefore trains alone with a physical trainer made available to her by PSG. Furthermore, “Hamraoui is not part of PSG’s sports projects, and it will remain like that for the whole season”, even launched the deputy sports director of the female PSG, Sabrina Delannoy, Friday, September 9, on Canal +.
Contacted by franceinfo: sport on Tuesday, the club believes that the term of “sidelining is a bit strong” and that this “decision is only sporting. We are looking for a way out for her, and we have offered her several prestigious clubs but she has refused them.” The transfer window in France ends on September 20, which still leaves a few days to find a solution.
So what’s the next step for the player? Thanks to the findings of the hoist, Kheira Hamraoui could put PSG on notice to reinstate her. Otherwise, the player could then sue the club before the industrial tribunal by highlighting “the existence of moral harassment since the sidelining of a player, continuously and over time, with a public announcement on television, is constitutive of the offense of moral harassment”, explained to franceinfo: sport the entourage of the player.
If Ligue 1 is governed by the Professional Football League (LFP), the women’s D1 is subject to the labor code, because of the relationship employer-employee, and the sports code, since the players have the status of federal players.
Article L222-2-9 of the Sports Code provides that the player, throughout the performance of his employment contract, must benefit from preparation and training conditions equivalent to those of other professional sportsmen and women. employees of the association or company. The article L4121-1 of the labor code, which provides “Security” and the protection of “the physical and mental health of workers”, is an element that Keira Hamraoui rightly calls into question. This exclusion is thus at the heart of the dispute. For now, the PSG club “did not have a return from the bailiff”. Will the next step be in court? The next few weeks will determine that.
