He studied successively at Villiers-le-Bel (2006-13), Senlis (2013-14) and Paris FC (2014-15) without ever catching the eye of PSG.

Little by little, I started myself. I took a mini piano and started watching tutorials on YouTube. Even if there are periods when I don’t practice much, I’ve learned two or three small pieces, and that allows me to think about something else.He said in 2021, on Konbini . And to add:My theme song is “Requiem for a Dream,” but it’s just an introduction. This is my foundation. After that, there’s a little Linkin Park and I’m trying to play some French rap piano, but it’s complicated. With the right hand, my strong hand, I was able to follow, but with the left, once accelerated, it’s hard. “Petricor” by Ludovico Einaudi is the piece I want to master. It’s really deep. I’m not good in public, but I once played a piece in a hotel that had a piano. Coaches came, surprised. But I’m not confident enough yet.Will the Blues have the opportunity to tap Monaco’s musical talent during the World Cup?
