Former PSG Employee Alleges Document Destruction by Club President

In the "Complément d’enquête" program devoted to the big boss of PSG entitled "Power, scandal and big money: the offside of PSG", and broadcast on France 2 on March 27, 2025, Hicham Karmoussi makes confidences. He states that he has private videos of his former boss and confirms having tried to "make official documents disappear". "I was in my room, he calls me and says: ’come, come, come’. I take his papers, he put them in the bathtub, it was burning, it set the room on fire. They were meeting papers. He lit the fire," he said.

The man who worked for 20 years in the service of Nasser Al Khelaïfi also claims to have been morally harassed ("spitting and insults"), intimidated and threatened. According to him, he was the target of several attempted kidnappings to take him by force to Qatar. "[Nasser] sent people down to my place [...] The employee tried to push me, to force me to get into the car. I was afraid and I started to scream. He told me: "no, come let’s talk". I knew that if I went to Qatar, I wouldn’t come back," confided the former butler in this one-hour documentary.

In June 2023, Karmoussi had filed a complaint against an unknown person with the Paris prosecutor’s office for "attempted kidnapping" and "extortion", claiming to have undergone enormous pressure because he was suspected of holding sensitive information about his former boss. He had also filed a complaint for complicity in attempted kidnapping, corruption of a public official, criminal conspiracy, invasion of privacy, interference with an automated data processing system and violation of the confidentiality of correspondence. The same year, the Paris prosecutor’s office had ordered a judicial investigation into the president of PSG for suspicions of "kidnapping", "sequestration with torture or act of barbarism committed by an organized gang", "extortion" and "criminal conspiracy".
