French star Alan Saint-Maximin opened his heart for the first time to talk about his ordeal during his recent experience with Turkish club Fenerbahçe, after officially returning to Saudi club Al Ahly.

Maximin spoke candidly about the difficult circumstances he went through, confirming that the administrative issues were an additional burden that increased his suffering both on and off the field during his loan period.

He recalled a painful moment during one of the decisive matches when he received a shocking call at halftime, informing him that his children were being held at the airport due to visa issues.

Maximin stated that the authorities prevented his children from entering and threatened them, emphasizing that this scene was one of the most brutal moments of his life, leaving a deep psychological impact that he cannot forget.

The French star also recounted another painful moment when his father was battling death, while Fenerbahçe officials coldly responded, saying: "We don't care about your father... we have an important match!" which Maximin described as "a lack of humanity."
