Former Tottenham and Newcastle midfielder David Ginola is suing his one-time France coach Gerard Houllier.
Houllier managed the French national team between 1992-93, as well as Liverpool and Aston Villa in England.
He is alleged to have referred to Ginola in offensive terms in a new book, Coaches' Secrets.
"David is absolutely incensed," a spokesman for Ginola told the BBC. "Houllier should stop talking like this. Stop singling David out."
