Ex-FC Barcelona and French national team player has transitioned easily into a new career following his retirement from professional football.
The 40-year-old, who played professionally for teams such as Barcelona and Valencia, currently works at an Intersport outlet in Cabriès – Plan de Campagne, close to Marseille.
According to reports, the player is Jérémy Mathieu.
Mathieu is not a manager of the store but is employed in the department of football, where he is providing his experience to customers.
His extensive knowledge of football and experience as a player of elite level make him a useful member of the team.
Having had a distinguished career on the field, Mathieu has been happy to transition into this next stage of life, remaining a part of the sporting world in another context.
His transition into Intersport demonstrates how professional sportsmen can have successful careers after the end of their playing careers.
Fans and customers in Marseille may just find some expert opinion from a former Barcelona legend during their next football shopping trip!
