“Fairly early in my career, I went to an official building to be presented with life insurance, indicates the one who is currently playing at the Hyères club.

They explained to me that all the money I was going to earn would go into this life insurance and that it would grow for my post-career, but that for 8-9 years, I couldn't get that money.

(…) Every December 31, I received receipts for what I had won, they were fake.

The person happened to be in cahoots with the officers.

Because in addition to being the victim of fraud, I was the victim of an organized gang.

It's as if I was in the middle of a table with 17 people and that I was the sheep to bleed.

In the video, the player who also played in the Russian championship shows a power of attorney that he would have had signed by his ex-agent and a Russian counterpart.

"As the writing was in Russian, I didn't understand," he laments.

I was told it was for an account opening.

And in a single day, he took 500,000 euros.

He sent 250,000 euros to one of his accounts and he withdrew 250,000 euros in cash.

I think he gave them to his Russian friends.

It was my signing bonus.
