Two French International football stars Franck Ribery and Karim Benzema were yesterday cleared of having sex with an underage prostitute Zahia Dehar.
The Court has ruled there was insufficient proof French internationals Franck Ribery and Karim Benzema were aware Zahia Dehar was 17 at the time in 2009.
It was reported that the case in Paris eventually collapsed after Dehar confessed neither man knew her age.
Bayern Munich star Ribery admitted sleeping with her after he flew her in on a private jet as a 26th birthday present for himself.
He said £650 he gave her was for travel, food and a hotel.
The prosecution said it was "doubtful" Real Madrid's Benzema, 26, had sex with Dehar at all or paid £400 to sleep with her.
In France, the sexual age of consent is 15 but paying for sex is only legal if the woman is 18 or over.
