Details of the complaint

In the complaint, filed in May 2024, the man, who was then 35 years old and had worked as an assistant at the player's house for two years since March 2021, accused Keylor Navas of violating the French labor code.

According to his account, he worked without a contract and informally, which allowed the imposition of working hours and conditions that do not respect French social rights.

Contacted by AFP, the accuser's lawyer, Lola Dubois, preferred not to comment on the case.

Remarkable career

Navas, 39, left PSG in July 2024, six months before signing with Newell’s Old Boys of Argentina. In July 2025, he transferred to Pumas of Mexico, the club he currently plays for.

In five and a half years, the Costa Rican goalkeeper played 114 matches for the Parisian team. Before that, he had a successful stint at Real Madrid (2014-2019), where he won three Champions League titles.

For the Costa Rica national team, Navas played in three World Cups (2014, 2018, and 2022).
