Things are not going well for Pierre Ménès. In recent days, the former star editorialist of Canal + has appeared very tired and weakened on his Youtube channel “Pierrot Le Foot”. A state of form so worrying that he was unable to cover all the football news of the week as he usually does.
On October 5, the football enthusiast gave his health news during the draw between Benfica Lisbon and PSG in the Champions League (1-1): “Both of my knees are screwed up. The law, I have known it for a long time. The left is happily catching up with him. As I have a double transplant, the prosthesis is really the very last solution… I did an infiltration, I couldn’t walk for four days. There, with the help of two crutches, it’s better”, he had indicated.
“Both my knees are screwed up”
The one who was recently heard in free hearing as part of an investigation for sexual assault spoke again about his health on Friday October 14 and his words are hardly encouraging. “You imagine that it is not going well. It turns out that both of my knees are screwed up. For the right, I knew that for a long time. Thanks to 20 years of hard court tennis tournaments… The pain was unbearable for weeks. I took the resolution to make an infiltration. Unfortunately, the left knee, suddenly, was affected. It got inflamed so yesterday I also did an infiltration of the left knee too“, he informed.
The former star consultant of Canal + then confided that he could no longer move: “There, I absolutely cannot leave my house, I have no autonomy, I walk with crutches. After the transplant six years ago, a serious Covid, a very strong infection for three weeks last April, I feel that the more things go, the more my strength decreases“, he said sorry. And to conclude: “You have no idea how lucky you are to be in good health, to enjoy football. I confess that at the moment, I have a little trouble. But for those who love me, I carry on“.
