The French newspaper also reports that Hamraoui said her legs were targeted by the men.
"My attacker hit me with an iron bar several times. I saw that he was mainly targeting my legs and I was trying to protect myself with my hands," Hamraoui told police.
"At that time, I didn't see a weapon. They immediately start yelling: 'Open the door! Open the door!' The one on my side grabbed me and pulled me out of the vehicle.
"Before, he grabbed a rectangular iron bar that he had hidden in his pants or under his sweater.
"He gave me a first blow from the first moments of the assault to force me out of the cabin. I fell on the road and then on the right side of the road.
"The scene lasted several minutes, it seemed long to me. Aminata told me it was faster."
Hamraoui was taken to the hospital after the attack, and has missed both of PSG's games since she was injured.
