Lucas Hernández and his wife have been accused by the Versailles Prosecutor's Office of human trafficking and concealment of work by a Colombian family. The events are said to have occurred from September 2024 to November 2025.
The family, consisting of the father, mother, and three children, claims that they worked for the couple illegally and with excessively long working hours.
“We were exploited and humiliated, they paid us far less than what we were owed. They exploit immigrants and their families, promise legalization that never happens, and treat us like slaves,” said the Colombian woman in an interview with Paris Match.

According to the complaint, the five employees were not registered with Social Security, in addition to the lack of payment receipts and payments made in cash.
The Colombian family reports having suffered pressure and verbal intimidation. In February 2025, the workers signed a confidentiality agreement, even without an official employment contract.
The complaint also includes an incident that occurred in December 2024, an attempted robbery at the house. The Hernández family men allegedly armed themselves with knives and firearms to retaliate. Paris Match accessed security camera footage that corroborates the information.
When questioned, Lucas Hernández's agent stated that the player and his wife were “perplexed” by the accusations and were unaware of the complaint. The Versailles Public Prosecutor's Office is still investigating the case.
