Fun Facts about Manon

Quirky facts. Inspired by her game.

She became a goalkeeper thanks to her older brother: he was an attacker and when he wanted to train as a kid he put four-year-old Manon in goal so he had someone to shoot at – and she discovered she liked it, even if she “didn’t really have a choice.”

She is a product of Strasbourg academy.

As a teenager she chose to move to Germany to challenge herself, explaining that with Racing’s youth team she was winning games by double-digit scorelines and wanted a more competitive environment.

She grew up in a family obsessed with football, with her parents, older brother, and even the family dachshund Erco all woven into her early memories of the game.

On her bedroom door as a teenager she hung a sign that read “Do not disturb, football night in progress”, and inside the room every wall was covered with football posters, scarves, clippings and a Racing shirt.
