The French Football Federation have launched an investigation into William Saliba after a video circulated on social media on Monday night, according to French media outlet RMC.

The video in question, lifted from Snapchat, shows Saliba recording with the front facing camera and appears to show a teammate performing a sexual act in the company of others.

It appears to have been recorded approximately three years ago, while Saliba was on international duty with the French youth set up.

Sources have told RMC that the FFF view the video as “harmful to the image of the federation & football as a whole.”
