Developing story: Samir Nasri involved in Mathieu Valbuena blackmail case [Le Monde]

The Bizarre blackmail case surrounding France midfielder Mathieu Valbuena just gets stranger.

Earlier on Friday, the 31-year-old, talked exclusively with France newspaper Le Monde. During the interview the Frenchman talked at length about the ongoing sextape case that has engulfed both the Lyon midfielder and his French international team mate Karim Benzema (read story here).

But new reports emerging out of France suggest that Manchester City midfielder Samir Nasri is somehow involved in this case too.

Whilst we are unclear as to what the former Arsenal man’s involvement in the case is, Le Monde has suggested that the 28-year-old offered to play the role of intermediary between Mathieu Valbuena & the blackmailers.

This latest astonishing news is just one of many twists in this mysterious case, which has already involved French footballers Djibril Cisse, Karim Benzema and now Samir Nasri.

Whilst Valbuena is the clear victim here in this story, we are unsure as to what Karim Benzema and Samir Nasri’s role in this case is.

The story that just keeps on giving.
