Currently, the emergency services, the gendarmerie, the army and a psychologist are negotiating with the player in the hope that they will convince him to abandon the suicide attempt, writes Marca.

The 22-year-old French midfielder was signed by Nice from Lokomotiv Moscow in 2022 for €12 million.

The French from Nice Matin claim that the footballer resorted to such a gesture because of a breakup.

Under the age of 23, the footballer did not score a single match at this start of the season.

Magnan Bridge is located on the A8 motorway in Nice, at an altitude of about 100 meters.

Due to the dire situation, Nice has canceled a press conference scheduled for Friday and the club has set up a crisis cell which hopes to solve the Beka Beka problem.
