Samuel Eto'o has stopped the release of a kiss and tell 'Revenge Porn' book, written by his former mistress, being sold in France.

The 34-year-old former Barcelona, Inter Milan and Chelsea striker is reportedly furious that the details of his seven-year affair with Nathalie Koah were set to be made public. According to The Mirror, 24-year-old Ms Koah has claimed that she felt ‘humiliated and betrayed’ when the footballer allegedly leaked nude pictures of her to the media, and wanted to release the book as a means of warning others about sleeping with celebrities. The book, ‘Revenge Porn – Football, sex, money: the testimony of Samuel Eto’o’s ex’, was due to go on sale over the weekend, but the footballer's lawyers successfully argued that its content contravened French privacy laws. The book's publishers have appealed against the judge's decision.
