Chris Mavinga, the Rennes defender, faced severe sanctions from the French Football Federation (FFF) for his involvement in a nightclub outing between two matches of the France Espoirs team. The FFF suspended Mavinga from all national team selections from November 12, 2012, to December 31, 2013. Rennes coach Antonetti expressed a desire to judge Mavinga based on his performances and urged people to move on from the incident. Despite facing setbacks, Mavinga returned to the first team and played in a Ligue 1 match against Reims on November 3, with his coach stating that the player understood the message.
HOPES: NO COMMENTS FROM MAVINGA
