"THAT NIGHT, EVERYTHING MARKED ME, UNFORTUNATELY. We all know how it happened, how it ended. It was probably our worst evening. The only thing I can hope for is that it doesn't go like that night. I repeat, a great performance will be necessary because we are facing, I believe, 2 OF THE 5 BEST PLAYERS IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW. Dembélé is an incredible player like all his teammates in his position. A GREAT DEFENSIVE MATCH WILL BE REQUIRED." (translated)

“HE HAS ALWAYS HAD THIS TALENT. WE COULD SEE IT. That he arrives in the French national team, maybe not right away, but his progress doesn’t surprise me. Even when he wasn’t playing, he gave everything. He already loved to work with intensity. He was very brave, he took risks. HE HAD A GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF THE GAME. The club invested a lot when he was there. Many players arrived like Kluivert, Gouiri, Stengs… There was competition. MAYBE HE WAS IN NICE AT THE WRONG TIME.” (translated)

🎀 PINK OCTOBER 2026 | "ACT FOR LIFE" On the occasion of Pink October, a month dedicated to raising awareness and fighting breast cancer, a special thought was expressed at the opening of our work for women affected by this disease, those who continue their fight, and the families who support them.

🚨🚨💣 BIG CASE SURROUNDING MOHAMED "MOMO" SANHADJI, head of security for the French national team for over 20 years. 🇫🇷😳 The investigation revealed by L'Équipe describes how this man, who has become extremely close to many stars of French football, allegedly used his connections to obtain loans, gifts, trips, and personal services. Among the disclosed elements 👇 💰 To buy a house for €440,000, Sanhadji is said to have asked for money from about fifteen players. €215,000 was ultimately loaned to him, notably: • Kylian Mbappé, through Fayza Lamari: €120,000 • Raphaël Varane: €20,000 • Sabri Lamouchi: €20,000 • Laurent Blanc: €20,000 • Yann M’Vila: €15,000 • Mattéo Guendouzi: €7,500 🤫 He allegedly asked several to keep these loans secret, even writing: "otherwise I’m dead." 🦷 Fayza Lamari also supposedly paid €7,000 for his dental expenses. The Mbappé family also financed the travel of their sons' football club for a tournament and invited him and his family to PSG-Bayern in 2023, including a night at the Royal Monceau. 📲 His closeness with the Mbappé clan was such that Fayza Lamari supposedly went through him to send messages to Didier Deschamps, notably after Kylian Mbappé was not selected in the fall of 2024. She also allegedly asked him to intervene with the coach regarding Rayan Cherki. ✈️ Sanhadji also allegedly solicited several personalities to finance his vacations. After facilitating administrative procedures for relatives of Franck Ribéry, he was offered a stay in Sicily worth €6,000. 🇲🇦 Jamel Debbouze allegedly invited him to his riad in Morocco, with a driver and buggy, after Sanhadji secured a spot for his son in a highly sought-after training at Clairefontaine. 🎟️ In 2022, Patrice Evra allegedly offered him €10,000 if he managed to retrieve 80 tickets for the Champions League final Liverpool-Real Madrid at the Stade de France. 💶 Mattéo Guendouzi also allegedly considered donating part of his bonuses from the 2022 World Cup to the police accompanying the French team. Sanhadji allegedly asked him to keep it "very discreet" and to have it justified accountably. ⚖️ Mohamed Sanhadji is currently being charged and is under judicial control. Philippe Diallo explained to the investigators that his behavior was contrary to the ethical and deontological charter of the FFF. His entourage contests the interpretation of certain elements and indicates that he "will reserve his statements for the justice system." 🇫🇷 (translated)

I had the pleasure of meeting the president of the Belgian federal Parliament, Mr. Peter De Roover, at the Parliament's headquarters in Brussels. Our important exchanges focused on several issues related to strengthening constructive dialogue in its various forms, as an essential peaceful instrument for addressing transnational international crises. We also emphasized the importance of preventive religious diplomacy carried out by the Muslim World League. We discussed the crucial role that the diversity of religious institutions around the world can play in defusing conflicts before they erupt, particularly those related to hate speech and the clash of civilizations. This role involves early awareness of the universal nature of difference and diversity, which should be addressed through dialogue, understanding, and collective action around shared values, in order to promote peace in the world and harmony within societies, while respecting everyone's right to live with dignity. I would like to express my deep gratitude for the commendations made by the president of the Parliament for our efforts on behalf of the Muslim World League and the Organization of Muslim Scholars. He praised, in this regard, the leading role played by the League in promoting understanding and mutual respect, fostering peaceful coexistence, and strengthening trust between societies. He described this presence as a concrete example of positive international pluralism and preventive diplomacy. I was also pleased that the president of the Parliament acknowledged the concrete nature of the international action we undertake on behalf of the League, as well as its institutional commitment, which goes beyond theoretical frameworks to establish real dialogue with leaders and communities around the world. The role of the League thus serves as a concrete model of contribution to building peace and promoting the values of coexistence, tolerance, and social cohesion. (translated)
