So far, he had only been the man of two clubs. After leaving Guingamp, his training club, Marcus Coco spent six years at FC Nantes, before leaving for free at the end of last season.
For the first time in his career, the winger or lateral was therefore free, looking for a new project. And this period was not easy to manage. The Guadeloupean thus turned his back on an offer from Russia.
“I put myself in my head that I was going to Russiaexplains Marcus Coco in a documentary of the team on the players of the UNFP FC, the team of unemployed footballers.
Everyone was ok with that. But the time to have my visa, my parents have changed my mind. And I needed my parents' approval to make a choice. »»
Marcus Coco finally in Cluj
“Today, the goal is to find something that looks like Russia's offer but that scares my family less”, added the old canary.
At the end of the transfer window, Marcus Coco had two new offers on the table, the CFR Cluj and Hapoël Tel-Aviv. Unsurprisingly, after refusing Russia for security reasons, the former Guingampais did not opt for Israel but for Romania. He will find another Frenchman there, Kurt Zouma, who has also signed in recent days.
