As we told you a while ago, Hatem Ben Arfa is a real fan of padel. Licensed at 4Padel Montreuil, the former French international is in an honorable 1342nd place in the French rankings.

The crazy thing is that he participated in 70 tournaments this year, that's more than one tournament per week! According to our colleagues from Le Parisien, the Clamart native, without a club since leaving Lille last season, is not yet finished with football. So does he use padel to stay in shape before putting his boots back on?

Perhaps, but not only that: it seems that the left-hander has developed a real addiction to this sport, as many footballers or former footballers before him. He would even play almost every day according to referee Roland Mermillod! The Frenchman can be proud of this great progression in 8 months, since last March, he was beyond 10.000th place.

Will we soon see Hatem enter the Top 1000? To be continued!

Xan is a fan of padel. But also of rugby! And his posts are just as punchy. Physical trainer of several padel players, he finds atypical posts or deals with current topics.
