“He made a mistake, he just wanted to warn Valbuena about the existence of a sex tape,” he told L’Equipe.
“[Benzema] really felt bad [when I told him about the video]. He told me Valbuena was very fragile and that he could kill himself. Even he didn’t want to see it.
“It was there [acting as a mediator] when Benzema made the mistake.
“Valbuena asked [Benzema], ‘did you see tattoos’, and Benzema replied, ‘you think I’m kidding? A guy came up to me, told me about the video and gave details about what you did. Frankly, it’s horrible’.
“The police treated it as a declaration of a criminal, when Karim wanted to help Valbuena.
“Benzema is very angry with me, but I didn’t put him in this on purpose. I didn’t know [the authorities] had our wires tapped.”
