Because he’s gone approximately 1 month without being the center of some drama, Benz has been called to testify again in the Mathieu Valbuena sextape scandal.

Benzema called to testify again
According to reports in ‘Le Parisien’, Real Madrid’s French striker Karim Benzema was called to testify again by Judge Nathalie Boutard at the Versailles court hearing the Mathieu Valbuena sexual blackmailing case.When questioned on the matter by the press, the player’s defence lawyer did not make a statement. Right now, it is not known why Benzema was called to testify again, but ‘Le Parisien’ insists that the French Football Federation has a special interest in speeding up the case in order to know whether Valbuena and Benzema will be available to play for France in this summer’s European Championship.
Sigh.

To be fair, this particular drama will cease once the case is done. It’s unsurprising that they’re calling him to testify again, really. And I hope it’s a positive instead of a negative that it’s happened this early.
Remember how long the teenage hooker case dragged on? Years. If they weren’t so concerned about Euro 2016, this shit would be hanging over him for another couple of years.
That’s true. I always forget how long that took. Partly because it seemed to just fade instead of an official end.
Ahhh Benz. I love him, but he a perfect case study on how to fuck your own life up despite having everything at his fingertips and the world at his feet. Idiot.
Yes, indeed. How do you say “cautionary tale” in French? 😉
It’s a good thing Perez looks at him like a son. I think otherwise he’d have been gone a while back.
