Paris prosecutor opens investigation into Hamraoui's harassment claims against PSG
Hamraoui lodged the complaint in May, when French media reported that the midfielder claimed she had been subjected to a campaign of insults, threats, denigration and cyber-harassment by several teammates. She now plays in Saudi Arabia for Al-Shabab.
She was attacked in November 2021 following an evening out with her former PSG teammate Aminata Diallo and other teammates. Hamraoui was hit several times with a metal bar and needed stitches for cuts on her hands and legs. There's a judicial case ongoing regarding the attack.
Hamraoui, who has made 41 appearances for France, also accuses PSG of having sidelined her during her convalescence to encourage her to leave the club.
A PSG spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Other former PSG players also are at odds with the club.
Kylian Mbappé 's legal team says PSG owes the star 55 million euros ($61 million) in unpaid wages. It also accused PSG of harassment because of the way he was treated amid a transfer standoff. Adrien Rabiot also claims he was treated badly in the final months of his contract.

Barrett says All Blacks impressed by young France talent
Beauden Barrett (right) says the All Blacks remain wary of a France squad packed with young talent (Grant Down) Playmaker Beauden Barrett said Saturday that the All Blacks remained wary of a talented but inexperienced France touring side, despite a resounding 43-17 victory in the second Test on Saturday. New Zealand scored six tries to two in Wellington after fielding a starting line-up boasting 708 Test caps which had too much quality for a France team with just 60. Advertisement Coach Fabien Galthie made 10 starting changes to his French side who had pushed the All Blacks unexpectedly close in a 31-27 loss in the first Test in Dunedin. Galthie chose to leave most of the stars from his Six Nations champions at home and instead brought 22 uncapped players for the three-match series. Some New Zealand pundits, such as former All Black Justin Marshall, said France were being "disrespectful" in bringing an experimental squad, while other critics said it devalued Test rugby. But veteran fly-half Barrett was having none of it after France shared the second-half spoils 14-14, fighting back from being 29-3 down at half-time. Advertisement "Look, we respect whatever team is put out on the park," Barrett said. "It's a French rugby team and we're all aware of the depth that France have." Barrett said he understood Galthie's strategy of building for the future and said that France's domestic Top 14 league was a deep resource of Test-class performers. "A lot of young talented players are getting opportunities here, which is valuable for them," said Barrett, looking ahead to the third and final Test next Saturday in Hamilton. "And with that comes a lot of freedom that we have to be very wary of, so we've got a lot of respect for the 15, the 23, every weekend. "We're doing a lot of homework on the individuals, so that's paying respect to those players." dgi/dh

Monster Energy's Loris Vergier Takes Third Place at 2025 UCI Downhill Mountain Bike World Cup in Pal Arinsal, Andorra
28-Year-Old Vergier from Cagnes-sur-Mer, France, Finishes in 3rd Place in Elite Men Division PAL ARINSAL, Andorra, July 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Another podium finish! Monster Energy congratulates team rider Loris Vergier on taking third place in the UCI Downhill Mountain Bike World Cup in Pal Arinsal, Andorra, this weekend. In the sixth race of the 2025 season, the 28-year-old from Cagnes-sur-Mer, France, earned his second consecutive podium finish in the Elite Men division. From July 9-12, the 2025 UCI Downhill Mountain Bike World Cup returned to legendary Pal Arinsal, Andorra, for a weekend of competitions. The iconic Andorran bike park has provided the backdrop for world-class competitions on the UCI Downhill World Cup circuit since 2008. At a length of 1.18 miles, the track challenged riders with a mix of technical obstacles and tight turns that guaranteed close finish times. In the Elite Men Downhill final on Saturday, Monster Energy's Vergier dropped in looking to continue his podium streak after taking second place on the previous weekend in La Thuile, Italy. After emerging from the grueling qualifier round in third place, Vergier was ready to put it all on the line in the final. Following the incredibly tight time differences in qualifiers, the final race proved extra challenging after precipitation. "The track was great! It got faster with the rain overnight, but it was still very tricky in the woods. A lot of guys either had trouble there or crashed, so it became a crucial part of the race," said Vergier. Putting down a perfect run and maintaining control, Vergier finished the course in a total of 2:36.534 for third place. "I really enjoyed today and I'm very happy to be back on the podium two times in a row now," said Vergier, adding: "I made the move last year [to Andorra] to be closer with friends and it's awesome to land on the podium here with all of them around." The third-place finish on Saturday maintains Vergier's current third-place position in the 2025 UCI Downhill Mountain Bike World Cup season rankings with 926 points total. Asked about his approach for the rest of the season, Vergier said: "Now I get to focus on the second half of the season with some testing for the bike and, of course, some training to try and go faster. The summer break will go by fast!" Not getting the finish he wanted in Andorra, 29-year-old Amaury Pierron from Brioude, France, was in the process of sticking what could have been a winning run before a crucial mistake: Missing a pole in the lower section of the track resulted in disqualification. Stoking the crowd in Andorra, 24-year-old French team rider Thibaut Daprela finished the track in 2:37.401. Finishing in ninth place, 20-year-old Jordan Williams from Great Britain completed the course in 2:37.673. The Elite Women division was overshadowed by 28-year-old Marine Cabirou from France suffering a heavy crash that required hospital treatment. She will be back for the next race and currently holds sixth place in overall season rankings with 649 points. In Saturday's final Elite Women race, 35-year-old Camille Balanche from Le Locle, Switzerland, lost control and slid off-track on a tight turn, finishing in fourteenth place. Nevertheless, Balanche currently holds fourth place in season standings with 717 points. The 2025 UCI Downhill Mountain Bike World Cup season is now at its halfway point: Make sure to tune in after the six-week break when racing returns at Les Gets, Haute-Savoie, France, from 28-31 August.
