Hommam Al Nassim 
A party attended by some players of the French national football team has sparked sharp criticism of the French Football Federation, after videos surfaced confirming the presence of drugs and alcohol, at a time when fasting players were excluded during Ramadan.
The famous French journalist Romain Molina appeared in a video recording in which he talked about the details of a party that was held by some players at the Sofital Hotel in Marseille, after the match, and the party was full of alcohol, drugs, and loud music, which caused annoyance among hotel guests.
This behaviour has led to accusations of double standards by the French Football Federation, where the behaviour of national players is condoned while Muslim players who wish to fast during Ramadan are penalized.
Earlier, Molina revealed a list of French clubs targeting Muslim players who fast during the month of Ramadan, prompting him to accuse the clubs of applying provocations towards these players.
French journalist Molina confirmed that the clubs are provoking them by threatening, saying: “If you want to fast the month of Ramadan you simply won’t play.”
Molina called on Muslim players to stand up to these provocations and adhere to their religious observance, otherwise “the situation will worsen”.
The French Football Federation has recently sparked controversy, after the exclusion of Muslim player Mohamed Diawara from the list of the France U-19 team, because of his adherence to fasting, and the federation also asked before the exclusion of Diawara coaches of teams for the categories under 21 years not to call any player who decided to fast during the month of Ramadan and refused to break the fast.
