Marcel Desailly, former footballer and 1998 world champion with the Blues, is the father of a 10-year-old child, Victoria, whom he refuses to recognize as his daughter. A court-ordered DNA test confirmed his paternity.
There is no doubt, according to The Parisian : Marcel Desailly, former footballer for the French team, is the father of Victoria, 10 years old.
A court-ordered DNA test taken this summer confirmed the identity of the father “99,99999 %”.
Cosma, the mother, lives with their daughter in the Spanish Basque Country. She lived for several years in Paris with the ex-captain of the Blues. The little girl would have always called Marcel Desailly “papa” before he cut ties in 2021, refusing to recognize her as his daughter.
He does not declare his birth in 2014
The couple met in 2010. At the time, Marcel Desailly was 42 years old and was still married to Virginie, with whom he had four children. Cosma gave birth to Victoria in 2014. The 1998 world champion with the Blues then returned from a trip abroad and did not declare the birth of his daughter, details The Parisian.
In 2016, the man who became a consultant for BeIN Sports and ambassador for Fifa was declared the father of Aïda, 25, by the Aix-en-Provence Court of Appeal, after refusing to submit to a paternity test.
Bridges cut
In 2018, his relationship with Cosma fizzled. In 2021, she asks him to recognize Victoria as his daughter. He refuses, ceases all contact. The case will continue in court.
“My client does not intend to give in to any intimidation”declared Me Françoise Rozelaar-Vigier, lawyer for Cosma, at Parisian. Marcel Desailly, 56, was also allegedly violent on several occasions with Cosma in 2013. A handrail had been filed.
“I’m sad for her.”
Cosma is demanding 5,000 euros per month in alimony. “Victoria doesn’t understand why he doesn’t call her anymore. She’s suffering from it and I’m sad for her,” she confided.
A next hearing will be held on December 10, 2024 for official recognition of paternity.
