  • He has appealed the verdict and remains presumed innocent, yet the appeal does not halt the provisional enforcement of the sentence.
  • The Parquet national financier has summoned him for October 13 to determine the precise date he must report to detention.
  • On September 27 he attended PSG–Auxerre at the Parc des Princes, taking a seat in the presidential tribune for the 2–0 match.
  • He was seen alongside Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, Luis Campos, Victoriano Melero and deputy Karl Olive, smiling and applauding, and he is a long-time PSG supporter who previously wore an electronic bracelet until May under the Bismuth case.
