He was in the heyday of AS Monaco from 2002 to 2004. Fans of the principality remember his famous left paw, capable of dropping the ball on any head of a teammate. A club in which he could be revealed and with which he reached the Champions League final in the 2003/2004 season. However, despite the fine European career, Jérôme Rothen decided to leave the Rock to join PSG the following year. Author of a fine career, the left-back is now a consultant and sports presenter on RMC. A radio on which he collaborated for a long time with Daniel Riolo and of which he has good and bad memories.
Indeed, the ex-footballer answered the questions of the Buzz-TV of Figaro this Friday, February 3. If he mentioned his career, our colleagues also wanted to know more about his relationship with the companion of Géraldine Maillet. Daniel Riolo, known for his sometimes controversial outings and his outspokenness which can sometimes be disturbing, did he have any friction with his ex-sidekick? Yes, “bOf course, there were frictions”immediately admitted Jérôme Rothen before saying more about the sports journalist recently tackled by Pierre Ménès: “I say what I think and it’s true that Daniel also has his temperament. He does not let go, he is very surly, so at times there was a lot of friction, but it was not calculated at all”.

However, it is out of the question that these “frictions” taint their relationship. But Jérôme Rothen recognizes it, their live quarrels sometimes took a long time before they died down: “These frictions, when you have them on the air, inevitably there are leftovers after the broadcasts. You have to take the time to digest”.
The two will also be separated in 2019 after making derogatory remarks “on the physique of a young woman who accused Neymar of rape”as noted Tele-Leisure. A suspension that allowed Jérôme Rothen to take off. “After five years, I had trouble digesting certain things. […] And I wanted to have my show to decide the themes […]. I’m not just a consultant anymore, now I’m an animator”, he concluded. Separation or not, the ex-footballer still made it clear that he always got on well with the journalist who attacked Kylian Mbappé not long ago.
