Aston Villa signing Boubacar Kamara has hit back at French pundit Daniel Riolo.

The France U21 midfielder has left Olympique Marseille for Aston Villa, where he will formally move when his OM deal expires on June 30.

Riolo has claimed when the midfielder received Andrea Berta, the sporting director of Atlético Madrid, at his home, he welcomed him in shorts, barefoot, with three friends of his. Seeing this, the Madrid director immediately judged that Kamara did not have the ability to play for the Colchoneros.

In response this morning, Kamara posted online: "When the lie takes the elevator, the truth takes the stairs. Even if it takes longer, the truth always ends up arriving!"
