Valbuena happy to 'move on' in sextape deal

Seven years later, the sextape affair is finally over.

Karim Benzema has given up on appealing his one-year suspended prison sentence, thus putting an end to the case.

The Real Madrid striker said he was "exhausted" by the procedure.

A feeling shared by Mathieu Valbuena.

"I too was tired of all this and I suffered a lot from it," he told RMC Sport.

This chapter is finally over.

For me it's been far too many years and far too long but that's fair.

Finally I can move on.
