On December 23, Aurélien Tchouaméni’s podcast, The Bridge, released its fifth episode, which examined a topic that transcends the pitch: Football players’ perceptions
Aurélien Tchouaméni, a midfielder for the Blues and Real Madrid, where he also serves as a central defense, opened out about his interactions with the media and the sterile realm of professional football. The former AS Monaco player expresses his opinions regarding how French football players are treated without holding back.
The fifth edition of Aurélien Tchouaméni’s podcast, The Bridge, was released on December 23 and examined a topic that transcends the field: how people view football players. The Real Madrid defensive midfielder discussed the necessity to balance his private and public lives, especially due to social expectations, while being accompanied by celebrities like comedian Fary and actor Omar Sy.
“I am myself, Aurélien Tchouaméni, at home. However, it feels a lot like walking on stage when I step onto the field. “It’s a different character,” he revealed. Talking with Omar Sy, whom he had consulted for guidance on how to handle this “switch” between his personal and professional lives, helped him become even more aware of this.
Tchouaméni believes that controlling everything that surrounds football is the true challenge; it’s not just about the competition. “Because in many fields, including football, it’s not what you do that’s the hardest. He clarified, “The hardest thing is focusing on the main thing (the essential point, Editor’s note) and everything around it.”
This image alludes to the intricate connections with the media, which place some limitations on gamers. Because there are some things you can’t express, you occasionally employ wooden language when speaking with journalists. He said, “It’s a fact, that’s how it is,” alluding to some kind of systematic pressure.
