Popular Madrid and France Football Player, Karim Benzema will need to clear his name before he plays again for France.
That was the decision the French Football Federation reached on Thursday with its president Noel Le Graet saying: ‘If things do not move on he will not play Euro 2016.
'I would leave a door open for him but until new evidence in his favour appears he is not available for selection.’
The French international is accused of being an accessory to an attempt to blackmail team-mate Mathieu Valbuena.
‘He is a good boy who grew up in a difficult neighbourhood and he has not changed his group of friends and he has become a star,’ added Le Graet who said he was pained to make the decision but that the FFF ‘could not turn a deaf ear to the recordings of conversations between Benzema and associates that have been leaked to the press’.
Le Graet stressed there was 'no problem' with Lyon playmaker Valbuena, however.
More details to be released soon...
