AS Saint-Etienne : news … from Andreas Laudrup! | ASSE News

He could have followed in the footsteps of his father, Michael (104 caps with Denmark), but the fate of Andreas Laudrup has changed. While celebrating his 30th birthday last week, Danish daily Dagbladet: “He made a short stint at Saint-Etienne in 2013. Since then, he has become a consultant on the TV2 Sport channel, where he comments in particular on Spanish football. He married Pauline and they have two children, Maximilian and Flora. “

The former Green participated in only one meeting with the professionals. Not spared by injuries, Andreas Laudrup was forced to quickly end his career: “At ASSE, this technical player has never made it to important matches due to the numerous injuries which, in much of his career, have hampered his development. In 2014, the doctors who operated on Andreas Laudrup him said he suffered from a severe arthritic disorder and was at risk of becoming disabled if he continued his playing career. He decided to hang up his boots in 2015 and continued his life away from the pitch by studying economy and commerce. ”

A choice that the interested party did not regret at the time: “I love to play football and it has occupied most of my life since I was a little kid. But with the long journey I have been through with joint disease, I am quite clear that it is as it should be. ”
