Gauthier Laurens is 23 years old and is one of the recruitments of Nîmes Olympique. This midfielder, still an electrician a short time ago, arrived from Castanet who plays National 3. Last season, he managed to score 17 goals and 6 assists. In an article in the
Free lunch dedicated to him, we learn that he is one of those players who finally had a second chance in the professional world, after having failed in the training centers.
Indeed, Gauthier Laurens was rejected by several training centers, to finally sign a first three-year contract with the Crocos at the end of June. The main interested party revealed that he made, among other things, a test at the younger Girondins de Bordeaux, he who is from Grisolles, a small village in Tarn-et-Garonne.
“Everything is possible ! I’ve always dreamed, always worked, always believed in myself, I’ve never given up, that’s what makes me stand before you today. There are different routes for everyone. When I left the Pôle Espoirs de Castelmaurou, I tried out in several clubs: Lyon, Valenciennes, Metz, Toulouse, Bordeaux. Apart from OL, I didn’t have the level. From age 12 to 16, I was treated with growth hormone. In the hip and knees, I had joint problems, which generated a lot of inflammation and periods of downtime, sometimes six to eight months. There are many small and frail players, at the highest level, who manage to get by, even in the Premier League”.
