Unlike many players who spend their free time during the current quarantine period in PlayStation matches or browse social media, Paris Saint-Germain star Tethelo Kerer chose this period to complete his academic project.
"I attend a variety of lectures that are held over the Internet due to the Coruna virus epidemic. Despite the difficult circumstances, they are going well," Kerer told German news agency DPA.
"At the moment, I am writing my final letter. Then I will receive my first official degree" in the field of business administration, he added.
Kerer, 23, feels that there are many other players who do not use their time wisely between matches, or during the current gap.
And if you were just playing the PlayStation, watching TV, or looking at your mobile phone and social media, Kerir says to you, this is bad for the mind. "
The player confirmed that his studies help him in his field of work, and he said, "I am convinced that the panoramic view is important in football because you have to be able to see the ball and the field all the time. If you spend hours and hours looking at a screen, you will not find this."
He explained that studying business administration will help him to use his money properly and avoid making mistakes made by many of the players who went bankrupt years after their retirement because of the mismanagement of their wealth.
Regarding his future ambition, the German player said he wanted to learn as much as possible in the shortest time available, and indicated that he is seeking to learn more foreign languages as he is fluent in English and French and is currently interested in Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Arabic.
Kerer joined St. Germain in 2018 from Schalke 04, a deal valued at 37 million euros.
