Sagna appeared alongside Errafi on a French television station where he said this was “the biggest challenge of my life outside of football.”
Errafi also narrated the train encounter in 2019 and how Sagna initially could not fathom the concept.
“In November 2019, I got on a train at the same time as Bacary Sagna.” He said.
“I told him that I had invented a weightless backpack. He burst out laughing and told me I was crazy.
“I invented a product that distributes the load comfortably and relieves the back.”
