RMC star consultant Daniel Riolo was sued by Neymar for comments made on air and the Brazilian demanded “a lot, a lot” of money from the journalist.

Last August, when discussing the accusations of rape against Wissam Ben Yedder, Daniel Riolo recalled that an indictment was not synonymous with guilt, admitting himself to then being “ indicted for defamation », without giving further details on the investigation he was the subject of. The RMC journalist was, in fact, sued by Neymar.

The star columnist of theAfter Foot explained, Monday evening, that he had escaped any conviction, a year and a half after the complaint filed by Neymar. Regularly attacked in court for his accusations on the air (he is currently by Didier Deschamps and Christophe Galtier), Riolo, who had mentioned the night life of the Brazilian prodigy who played for PSG, this time experienced a very “ stressful » because the opposing party « really asked for a lot of money “. Such a fine would have been “ quite painful “.

The 53-year-old journalist took the stand, before the judge, to demonstrate that his comments about Neymar were “ proven and argued “. The court found that the file given by Daniel Riolo demonstrated that “ Neymar’s difficulties in his sporting life were the result of a lifestyle he had chosen to adopt “. Even outside of his convalescence periods, the former number 10 of the Blue and Red spent his nights playing poker or watching Brazilian telenovelas.
