"I have no feeling of hatred or revenge," Serge Aurier told La Depeche about the murder of his younger brother Christopher.
"I work in a profession where you have to be calm. I'm calm. I have faith in justice. I am saddened, I am in regret. I continue to mourn the death of my brother."
Christopher was shot dead outside a nightclub in Toulouse on Monday. A man who killed him turned himself in to the police on Tuesday night and 'confessed to having killed the victim'.
"He took care of everyone here while I was away," Serge continued.
"He took care of my mother, my nephews and nieces. He took care of all material things with pleasure. I really appreciated knowing that he was there for my mother. It set the mood at home."
The Tottenham right-back featured in the 3-1 win over Newcastle United on Wednesday as he had personally requested Jose Mourinho to play.
"Above all, I thank my team, Tottenham," the 27-year-old concluded. "I played last night. The club's players dedicated the match to his memory. I discussed it with the coach.
"I wanted to do this game and I did it. I knew that I would not be alone on the ground."
