French referees may 'withdraw' if put at risk, says union

The French referees union stated that members would withdraw if they or their families face risks after referee Jeremy Stinat received threats following comments by Olympique de Marseille President Pablo Longoria.
Longoria objected to referee Stinat's appointment for a match, criticizing it as 'true corruption' after Marseille lost and receiving a 15-match ban from the French football league .
Reports indicated that Stinat's family faced harassment, with two of their car tyres slashed, leading him to file a legal complaint regarding the incident.
The referees union met with French Minister for Sport Marie Barsacq to discuss referee safety and plans to take legal action alongside Stinat against the threats they faced.
