Career

society

The left-footed, 1.77-meter-tall winger went through the national association training center in Clairefontaine-en-Yvelines in his youth , before moving to the junior eleven at the age of 16 and then to the second-rate league team of SM Caen . He became a regular in France's Division 1 only from 2000 at ES Troyes AC , with which he was seventh in the league. In the middle of the second season he left the team from Champagne to join AS Monaco .

In Monaco , Jérôme Rothen made his breakthrough: in 2002/03 he fed his storm colleagues Dado Pršo and Ludovic Giuly with crosses and assists in 37 of the 38 point games and made a significant contribution to their 23 goals and the club's runner-up . He became known beyond France for his cross runs in the Champions League , when he only had to admit defeat with AS Monaco in the final. Immediately afterwards (2004) he moved to PSG in Paris . In the first few years, however, Rothen was unable to build on his good form from the “Monegasque years”. It was only towards the end of the 2006/07 season that he found his way back to the level he had in Monaco and was one of the key players who saved PSG from relegation. Nevertheless, he was given leave of absence from the club in July 2009 because he had expressed himself publicly critical of PSG's sporting development.

Since the beginning of the 2009/10 season he was on loan to the Glasgow Rangers for a year . He made his first game for the Scottish club on September 12, 2009 against FC Motherwell. Rothen played the second half of the 2009/10 season on loan for Turkish first division club MKE Ankaragücü . After attempts to sell Rothen failed during the summer break, he was back on Paris SG's payroll in 2010/11; However, the then coach Antoine Kombouaré made it clear that the player who had fallen out of favor there - an extremely unsatisfactory situation for Jérôme Rothen despite a gross monthly income of around € 180,000 - does not belong to the professional squad, but at best to the reserve team, which played in the fourth division , will be used. In October 2010, Rothen terminated his contract. At the end of May 2011 Rothen signed for two years with the Corsican second division returnee SC Bastia , and twelve months later he was awarded the trophy of the players' union as the best second division player of the 2011/12 season . During this season, at the end of which Bastia had managed to march through to Ligue 1, Rothen played 32 point games, scored four goals and provided seven assists. He played a year as a regular in the French top division before returning to his previous club SM Caen in 2013 at the age of 35; He had signed a one-year contract with the second division club, which he canceled after just under four months. In January 2014 he declared his playing time over for good.

National team

Appointed to the Equipe Tricolore for the first time two days before his 25th birthday , Rothen has so far made 13 international appearances for Les Bleus . Opponent in his first game for the French was Malta . The then coach Jacques Santini changed Rothen in the 80th minute for Thierry Henry . In 2003 he was part of the French squad that won the Confederations Cup . However, Jérôme Rothen did not get beyond a 67-minute bet in the second round match against Japan in this tournament . He only accompanied the rest of the encounters as a spectator.

After he made his last game in the game on November 12, 2005 against Germany for a long time, Rothen was invited to the qualifying game for the European Football Championship 2008 on October 13, 2007 against the selection of the Faroe Islands . He made a successful comeback with a free-kick goal, his first goal in the dress of the national team. However, the midfielder missed the leap into the French squad for the finals.
