This Thursday, former Stade Rennais player and French international Paul-Georges Ntep announced the end of his professional career during an interview with France Bleu.
Without a club since an experience in Vietnam which ended last March, the former twirling winger is done with football.
“My career, for me, is over. I have moved on in my head and have other plans. I enjoyed what I experienced, I enjoyed Vietnam. But for me, football is just good memories but it’s over. I have entrepreneurial projects, these are personal development projects and opening companies, doing concrete things. In the Rennes region? Possibly, I wouldn’t know if it will come right away, but within one to two years, I would like to open something here, yes, “ he blurted.
And to continue: “I am often told that I left good memories, at a time when it was a bit complicated for the Stadium. Seeing the development of the club afterwards, at a certain point, there is a bit of nostalgia because I would have liked to experience certain emotions, the Coupe de France, the European Cup, etc. But I don’t regret. I went there at a difficult time, but I really enjoyed it. I met people who are still close friends to this day. I feel good when I’m here. »
