Serge Aurier: ‘‘A huge mistake from me’’ (video in French)
Translations
Aurier: It was a video which is today, which took a huge proportion, at the beginning it was... voila and today I'm not really proud of what is happening right now, because i put the Club at risk. We have an important game which arrives, I think this video shouldn't... and I'm sincerely sorry. If I'm today in front of your cameras it's serious, so I came to apologise, apologise to the coach, to my teammates and all the representatives of the club. I think today it's important to... to do it because voila I'm unforgivable on everything which is happening right now so I'm here for that and sincerely it's something which hurts me a lot.
First I want to apologise to the coach, I think I owe him a lot for everything he has done since I arrived to PSG. He wanted me in this team and today I'm happy to be an important element of the squad. I'm really disappointed of that and I apologise to my teammates and the people of the club, the supporters, I think... it's something that must not happen at an important moment of the season before a game we talked about for months. Voila today, I don't want to disturb this concentration, just that everyone focus on this game which is really important for us. The problem today it's me, I really hope it won't disturb the consciousness and mood of the team. It's something I will try to fix and that's why I'm here.
Journalist: Do you accept those sanctions?
Aurier: Of course, I think they are totally justified, I... fuc.. did a big mistake and something unforgivable so I assume all the sanctions which are against me. I sincerely want to apologise to the coach and to all my partners, to the representatives of the club, the president, the supporters and voila I hope we will do a good result. I'm someone emotional at the base so I don't like when picking on me, I saw the proportions that it took, voila I'm... it hurts me a little bit because I would have preferred it happened differently. I would have preferred to participate at the adventure of this group who waits for this game since a long time. But today I will only bring my support that's all, I think today I don't have much to say except that's I'm very sorry and the most important it's the game it's not me.
