Franck Ribery, the star French midfielder and subject of numerous transfer rumours, is at the heart of the sex scandal which allegedly involves underage prostitutes. Its not a good look for the 27 year old husband father of two nor is it a stabilising influence for the national team so close to the world cup.
The French are hardly the favourites for South African glory this summer having reached the event due to 'the hand of frog' (Thierry Henry's handball against the Irish in qualification sudden death) but this turmoil will surely not help their cause any further.
On an individual front, given John Terry's recent indiscretions and the hullabaloo that created, it is unlikely that the blue west london door of Chelsea is open. Just who will keep the door open and pay the pre-sex scandal asking price of 45 million euros for a player who may realistically end up in jail is anyones guess...
