Rothen had announced a PSG goal while still in Monaco, Evra recalls
Jérôme Rothen, a former player who worked for Paris Saint-Germain from 2004 to 2010, made his dream come true by joining the club in the capital. It is in all that suggests Patrice Evra, his former teammate at AS Monaco, as he mentioned on the airwaves of RMC Sport.
“He did just one bullshit, go to PSG (laughs). It was a choice of the heart on his part. Even before he signed, we were watching a PSG match and he began to appreciate it while he was still Monegasque. I told him “Jerome, you’re sick” (laughs). He had a huge desire to go to Paris Saint-Germain. ”
For a player, joining his favorite club must be a moment to remember. Jérôme Rothen had the chance to wear the Parisian colors for 6 seasons. Even if he had a complicated period, he wrote a big page in the history of PSG. He remains today still an emblematic player of the party club what he achieved. When you’re in love with one club, it’s hard to hold back, even if you’re wearing another’s colors.
Obviously, he is nonetheless professional and does the job he has to do when he is on the pitch. But committing to PSG must have been a realization, as well as a relaxation of being able to finally display freely as a Parisian supporter. Even if his Parisian adventure was quite complicated.
