We may have to take full advantage of the talent of Nelson Monfort
during the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Indeed, this could well be the last major event that the journalist will comment on. In any case, this is what he suggested when he came to the Buzz TV from Figaro
.
Iconic voice of sport on France Televisionsthe 71-year-old man has been covering athletics, skating, and even Roland-Garros for nearly 30 years on France 2 And France 3. And when Sarah Lecoeuvre asked him if the Paris Olympics, which will take place from July 26 to August 11, 2024, would be his last, Victoria’s dad did not announce excellent news.

Nelson Monfort’s “last” Olympics
“I don’t put myself in that perspective”he warned before recognizing: “these will probably be my last in this configuration”. However, Nelson Monfort lives day to day. In fact, he does not put “in this state of mind of saying that these are the last ones”. “The polls put me quite high in the hearts of the French. That’s enough for me and then we’ll see”he admitted with humor.
Journalists from Buzz TV from Figaroquite surprised by their guest’s response, subsequently insisted on his response. “It’s entirely possible, no one is irreplaceable”hammered Nelson Monfort when our colleagues asked him again if the Paris Olympics were going to be the last major event he was going to cover.
Already plans for the future
But fans of the journalist can rest assured, he does not seem ready to retire. “Yes, but I can’t tell you too much.”he revealed for example when our colleagues asked him if he had “other projects”or if “other channels” recently contacted him.
If Nelson Monfort quits France Televisions one day, it will only be if the group has nothing more to offer him. In fact, the journalist claims to be a person “very faithful”. “I remained loyal to France Télévisions for 30 years. This heritage section on the women’s Tour de France could be something that could allow me to be a consultant. And then there is perhaps something else like skating”he continued.
In fact, if the emblematic voice of sports France Televisions covers his last Olympic Games, viewers could still find him on other sporting events.
