Michel Platini is innocent. Nearly three years after their acquittal at first instance, the former playmaker and the former FIFA president, Sepp Blatter, were again paid on appeal by the Swiss justice, in the suspicious payment case which broke their career in 2015. The extraordinary court of appeal of the federal criminal tribunal gathered in Muttenz again pronounced a non-place despite the requisitions of the prosecution.
“My honor has returned. The persecution of FIFA and some Swiss federal prosecutors for ten years is now over ”could blow the former playmaker at the end of his trial, adding: “I have already received ten thousand messages, as from some European parliamentarians, in the political world. I would like to thank all those who have supported me for ten years and know me, and who have trusted me. »»
His friends made a block behind him. And as soon as the announcement of his acquittal, some did not fail to react and pay tribute to the former playmaker. This is particularly the case of Olivier Rouyer, his former teammate at AS Nancy Lorraine. “” Michel has never done illicit things. He has always done everything in the standards. He says it from the start. We don't want to listen to it. The only subject was to know if he was the president of FIFA. Some people have decided not. They hired something that made Michel was dismissed. It is a real plot. He was sali as you can't imagine. His wife and family suffered a lot ”, He thus entrusted on the set of the L'Equipe chain.
Michel Platini is an “honest man”
“He's an honest man. It has always been and will always be, he added. And finally, Swiss justice has recognized its honesty and the man it has always been. It is wonderful and it deserves it because once again, what annoys me the most is that we would have had an absolutely extraordinary FIFA president, probably not as the one we currently have, who thinks of players, who thinks of football and who does not think of money. »»
And the bell sound is the same in the column of Jacques Vendroux in the Journal du Dimanche.
“” It is unacceptable that one can still make you lose ten years of your life because of false accusations “, He wrote, denouncing the betrayal of some of his collaborators. “You must now know where your real friends are”, he continued before highlighting his “Wonderful player career, leader, leader” and call to A tribute to the Stade de France, a stadium that you built. “”
