Ex-Liverpool striker Djibril Cisse has been taken into police custody over a case of possible blackmail of France midfielder Mathieu Valbuena.
The 34-year-old striker was one of four people arrested by French authorities.
The case revolves around an alleged sextape of Lyon midfielder Valbuena that, according to AFP, is in the possession of the other three individuals involved.
However, the French news agency is reporting that Cisse, currently playing his football on the island of Reunion for JS Saint Pierroise, should be released ‘imminently’ and ‘put out of the question’ with regard to the case.
