Solicited by RTL, the journalist Jean-Louis Tourre prefers to stay at RMC. He even got a promotion.
It’s not just in the world of football that the transfer market heats up during the summer. For the media, the period is also conducive to transactions. Jean-Louis Tourre, journalist on RMC, was recently approached by RTL to succeed Christian Ollivier as sports director.
Jean-Louis Tourre could thus have become the host of the famous program entitled “On refait le match”. According The Team, he preferred to decline this proposal to stay with his current employer, for whom he has been on the airwaves since 2007. Now 37, the radio journalist has even been promoted to head of the football section and host of the Sunday Ligue 1 evening on RMC. On this occasion, he will now be in the stadium where the Sunday posters of the French championship will be disputed.

Jean-Louis Tourre will continue to host the show ” Rothen ignites », alongside the former attacking midfielder. However, on Friday, he will give way to his joker, Benoît Boutron. Last year, he found himself at the heart of a controversy after the broadcast on RMC of a private discussion with Florian Thauvin. The journalist spoke in particular of Marseille as “a city of dingoes”.
