The 2018 French football team has never been so padel. Among the French team, 4 football players regularly play or have played padel: Deschamps, Pogba, Giroud and Pavard.
Didier Deschamps: The most passionate
The captain of the French football team is certainly the most passionate football player in padel. A padel player for over 3 years now, he plays regularly in the south of France, particularly in Tennis Padel Soleil

Pogba and Pavard: Insiders
Pogba and Pavard have already started playing padel. The first in Sweden with his friend Zlatan during the inauguration of Padel Zenter. The second in Lille, at the club Padel Attitude. He had tested there with his former LOSC 4 years ago.
Giroud: A precursor
We often hear that Olivier Giroud, the Gunners, had invested in the padel club in Sophia Antipolis alongside Robin Haziza and Jérémy Ritz (Real Padel Club). At the time it was still the beginnings of padel (2012/2013), even if this date coincides with the beginning of the big development of padel in France and in the world. Since then, the club has evolved and was especially bought by the Mouratoglou Country Club.
Franck Binisti discovered padel at the Club des Pyramides in 2009 in the Paris region. Since then, padel has been part of his life. You often see him touring France to cover major French padel events.
