This former blue is now working at Intersport!

The Intersport store in Cabriès-Plan of the countryside risks being taken by storm this weekend. The curious people will want to go and check if the rumor, released by the lesviolets.com site and confirmed by the team, is true.

Among the staff, there is a former professional footballer, which is not already commonplace. Except that he is not an average player, but a former French international (5 selections) and a man who has played nearly 100 games with FC Barcelona, ​​and won the Champions League with the Catalans, just that.

Jérémy Mathieu, the ex-defenseman of the Blues, but also of Sochaux, Toulouse, Valence or Sporting Portugal, is not the manager of the establishment, but rather an employee like the others.

Soon coach?

It would be a personal decision, in parallel with his studies to graduate as a coach. The company would have offered to run a department and manage teams and photos from Mathieu in work clothes would have leaked in recent hours.

Retired from the professional world since 2020 and a last season with Sporting Portugal, Jérémy Mathieu had taken a license at the Luynes Sport club between 2021 and 2023.
