"Amateur football is at a standstill"

"I came to this project thinking that the virus was overcome and that amateur football would resume, explained Nicolas Anelka to Foot transfer window.

After three months at the club, the observation is obvious: the sporting project is no longer the same.

Amateur football is at a standstill and the restrictions are even more severe.

"

“Aware of the financial difficulties that have arisen at the club, which weigh on the implementation of the project, and of the decisions taken against amateur football, I do not see any short or medium-term projection on amateur football.

My experience and expertise are of no use at the moment.

I therefore prefer to devote my time to my other activities, ”he continued.
