Zubya’s family have spoken out, saying they don’t currently know the demands from the player’s kidnappers that could trigger his release.

Ahmed Hamza, the head of the committee, called for Zubya to be released immediately.

He said: “We call on the Libyan authority to release him without any delay, and not to repeat these outrageous incidents and practices.”
