The French Ministry of Justice confirmed that anti-corruption officers took the 63-year-old in for questioning in the Parisian suburb of Nanterre on Tuesday morning.
Platini is currently serving a four-year ban from football after FIFA’s Ethics Committee found that he received a “disloyal payment” from former FIFA president Sepp Blatter.
A statement from the Ministry of Justice, given to Omnisport, read: “Platini was taken in for questioning on Tuesday by officers of the Anti-Corruption Office of the Judicial Police.
“Following questioning, he was detained.”
