Here are two who will no longer go on vacation together… This year on the plateau of Canal Football Clubthe atmosphere is rather relaxed, even if the arrival of the young Bertrand Latour brings a little spice. Having arrived from the L'Équipe channel, the 32-year-old journalist generally has a fairly clear point of view and he does not hesitate to get into heated debates with the former player of the France team and now consultant for Canal+, Samir Nasri.
In his question and answer with his subscribers on his Youtube channel, Pierrot the Footballthe sports journalist Pierre Ménès had to answer a question concerning the attitude of Bertrand Latour and Samir Nasri. Former resident of Canal Football Cluba show in which he remained for more than 10 years, the man who made a huge capital gain when he sold his home in the Paris region, has obviously not kept very good relations with his former work colleagues. If the two named were not present at the time when he spoke, he did not hesitate to attack quite violently the host of the show, Hervé Mathoux, as well as the consultant Laure Boulleau.
Pierre Ménès pays Laure Boulleau and Hervé Mathoux
After leaving the Canal+ group in the summer of 2021 following accusations of sexual assault against him, Pierre Ménès did not remain on very good terms with the executives of the Canal Football Club. “You're talking to me about something that I am not“first responds the journalist filmed hitting his dog last year, concerning the show in which he used to appear, before adding: “At the time of the (football match) debriefs, I am doing mine for you (his subscribers). I'm not a customer and I don't at all want to see the faces of Hervé Mathoux and Laure Boulleau again. I'm not looking.”
A tackle that risks making noise in the sphere of French sports journalism. If Pierre Ménès has already spoken out about Hervé Mathoux, he has never before been harsh towards Laure Boulleau. During an interview given to TV Starhe was very harsh towards the host of the Canal Football Club. “He was there to look good when I was sick, but when it was time to get his ass out, there was no one there”declared Pierre Ménès in 2021. A few months later, it was with The Team that he was much more direct: “For me, he is dead”.
No longer friends with Laure Boulleau and Hervé Mathoux, Pierre Ménès has made this clear.
