Former Portsmouth defender Yann Nsaku has reportedly been arrested in France for being part of a terrorist attack.

The 19-year-old, who was forced to retire from the game due to a knee injury, is believed to have joined a group under radical leader Jeremy Sidney, who was shot dead by police on Saturday in Cannes.

The men in question are thought to have been at the centre of an attack on a Jewish food shop in Paris last month, prompting the authorities to arrest the former Pompey youngster, according to The Sun.

Ten others were also detained by police.
