Young Football Star Ethan Clavreul Shines in Ligue 2
Ethan Clavreul, a 19-year-old footballer from Mayenne, has captured the attention of Ligue 2 with his impressive performances. The young talent made his professional debut on August 9 against Saint-Étienne, scoring a memorable equaliser in a thrilling 3-3 draw.
Clavreul's journey began at a local club, where he spent his formative years honing his skills. Even today, he remains close to his roots, helping with the senior team's coaching in the Third Division departmental.
Olivier Frapolli, the coach of Laval, played a crucial role in Clavreul's professional breakthrough. Frapolli gave Clavreul his first opportunity and has been instrumental in his rapid rise. Clavreul's first professional goal was an unusual one, an involuntary chest deflection, but it was a dream moment for the teenager born near Laval.
Clavreul's second professional goal came just four days later in Boulogne-sur-Mer, in his first start for the team. His right-footed shot deflected into the net, marking his second goal in as many games.
Frapolli describes Clavreul as natural, simple, and not prone to showing off. He has a lot of personality in his football, according to the coach. Clavreul acknowledges being surprised by his rapid success but hopes his current success is the beginning of a long journey.
Clavreul's parents have advised him to stay grounded despite his success. They have threatened to bring him back down to earth if he becomes too arrogant. The young footballer has taken their advice to heart, acknowledging that he still has much to learn.
Despite his newfound fame, Clavreul is still referred to as the new Tango darling in Ligue 2. His goals, although not particularly beautiful, are seen as fortunate, and Clavreul credits them to being in the right place at the right time.
As Clavreul continues to grow and develop, he is sure to capture the hearts of football fans across France. His calm demeanour, natural talent, and humility make him a player to watch in the future.
