Arsenal defender William Saliba has been handed a one-month suspension by the French FA over his X-rated video that went viral on social media. The French Football Association opened an investigation into the scandalous incident wherein the footballer was involved. The X-rated video, which is believed to be three years old, was widely circulated online.
Although Saliba initially posted the video on Snapchat, he then deleted it from the app. However, the X-rated video clip resurfaced earlier this year and went viral on social media. The FFF immediately took the step to set up a disciplinary commission to investigate the scandalous video, which was considered harmful to the image of the French federation and football as a whole, according to reports.
Reportedly, the RMC Sport report says that the commission has decided to hand Saliba a one-month ban from the French national team at all age groups over the X-rated video scandal. Moreover, the player will not face any time on the sidelines. Another Premier League player, Brighton teenager Ulrick Eneme Ella, was also found to play a role in the scandalous video clip and has been punished for it. They have been handed a three-month suspension, only one of which is suspended.
