Following the revelation of the probable dismissal of Jonathan Calderwood, PSG gardener, Ambre Godillon paid tribute to him.

The imminence of a departure from Paris Saint-Germain was revealed on Tuesday by L’Équipe. The sports media explained that Jonathan Calderwood, head gardener of the Parisian club recruited in 2013, had been summoned to a preliminary interview “could lead to dismissal”. News that touched Ambre Godillon.

And for good reason, since the columnist for the L’Équipe channel worked for several years for the capital club. She therefore regularly encountered the gardener from Northern Ireland. And obviously she liked the man and said something on the subject. But with great tweezers.

“I know Jonathan Calderwood very well. (…) I think that whatever I’m going to say, people are going to say that I have a bias anyway, whether it’s Paris Saint-Germain or Jonathan Calderwood, so I won’t be able to comment on that. » But Ambre Godillon still ended up giving her opinion by paying tribute to her former Parisian colleague.

“In any case, I think that he is an immense professional, an immense gardener, and that he has conditions in which he must do his work which are not obvious. We recall the ergonomics of the Parc des Princes which is on a ring road, which is only a few centimeters long, which has to juggle with that, which no lawn in France has. »

The journalist concluded by showing her sadness.
“He is an artist but not a magician. We’ll see what happens, but I still find it a little difficult. » For now, Jonathan Calderwood is still officially under contract with PSG. But the episode of the match on the first day of Ligue 1, with the PSG-Rennes match which had to be reversed due to the catastrophic state of the Parc pitch, could well be fatal for him.
