“Is he the new Zidane?” »»displayed The Parisian On its front page! Marvin Martin's beginnings in the French team took on the air of fairy tale. Like the legend “ZZ”, “MM” scored a double after its entry into play during its first in the Blues. On June 6, 2011, the Sochaux play leader, called in reinforcement by Laurent Blanc after the package of Yoann Gourcuff, replaced Yohan Cabaye in the 76th minute and made the nets tremble twice, with a distant strike and on a gap of Karim Benzema, while performing a corner taken up by Younès Kaboul, for a 4-1 victory.
High quality smuggler (he finished the 2010-2011 season with 18 assists on the clock!), Martin then did not confirm to LOSC, from 2012, and gradually disappeared from radars. His record in the France team still displays 15 appearances. He barely relaunched in Ligue 2 with the Reims stadium, in 2017, before continuing in the anteroom of the elite at FC Chambly Oise until 2021, before around twenty matches in National 2, with the Hyères FC.
At 37, Marvin Martin is now an assistant coach in Hyères, still in N2. The main coach is called Anthony Crosland. France Football highlights several former French internationals who lead their second career in the amateur world.
Marvin Martin hit in the knee
Marvin Martin is therefore no longer a footballer. His end of career went unnoticed and the old number 10 of the lion cubs had to hang up the crampons due to a painful knee. The conclusion was a very bad experience. “Until the last moment, you don't want to think about retirement. When everything stops, it's very complicated ”tells the native of Paris to the magazine.
Two years ago, the ex-New-Zidane therefore turned directly to the training. He accompanied Anthony Crosland at the head of the U17s of the Hyères FC, was appointed assistant to former Caennais Lilian Compan as a first team, before keeping his post on arrival of his friend Anthony Crosland on the VAR training bench evolving in N2.
