A third athlete has been announced to the casting of Dancing with the Stars, the show broadcast on TF1, which will soon be arriving for its 14th season. He is an illustrious world champion, already comfortable on stage.
He had prevented the Brazilian players from dancing the samba at the Stade de France on July 12, 1998, and he will now have to show his best steps in order to claim the title in the 14th season of Dancing with the Stars: this Thursday, the name of Franck Leboeuf has been officially announced as part of the cast of the show, which will soon be broadcast on TF1. The world champion joins two other athletes, Florent Manaudou and Adil Rami, who will face candidates like Charlotte de Turckheim, Eve Gilles, Sophie Davant or Lénie Vacher in dance battles.

After ending his life as a footballer in 2005, the defender, who played for Strasbourg, Chelsea and Olympique de Marseille, launched a career as an actor.
