'Mediapart': Benzema's entourage accused of attempted kidnapping

This report indicates that the agent, who allegedly had worked with Karim Benzema before, filed a lawsuit on Monday 8 October. The event reportedly took place after PSG played Lyon on October 7, with the French champions winning 5-0. 

The motive for the alleged incident has to do with a money transaction amounting to 50,000 euros. D'Souza claims that this attempted kidnapping took place in the 13th arrondissement of Paris, near a cachimbas bar.

The player's lawyer Sylvain Cormier has come out to deny the allegations of the representative, who often travels with Olympique Lyon on their travels, according to the source.

"Mr. D'Souza's complaint is a false as well as an embarrassing attempt to cover up his clumsiness," he claimed, as reported by 'Maxifoot'. 

The police have opened an investigation to clarify the facts. D'Souza, in his lawsuit - submitted at the Nanterre police station - gave the names and surnames of the men who tried, according to his allegation, to kidnap him while smoking a cigar in the door of an establishment.

Benzema, of course, was not at the scene. Currently the French striker is trying to recover from an injury that prevented him from completing his last league game. Julen Lopetegui wants him to be available as soon as possible.
