More fear than harm for Nayef Aguerd. The Moroccan defender for Olympique de Marseille confirmed he was attacked on Sunday, October 5, 2025, at Marseille-Provence airport as he was preparing to join the Moroccan national team for the international break.
On Instagram, the defender posted a story to reassure everyone, thanking security staff and law enforcement for their swift response:
I was indeed assaulted at Marignane airport while waiting for my flight to join the Moroccan national team. Fortunately, it was more of a scare than anything serious.
