Karim Benzema plans to file a complaint against Zemmour soon!

Karim Benzema’s lawyer announced this Tuesday that the player had filed a defamation complaint against Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin, who had claimed that it was “common knowledge” that the former Real Madrid player was “in notorious link” with the Muslim Brotherhood.
