He was wanted by at least three French clubs but eventually opted for Paris FC, marking his return to the league.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking in an interview with Paris FC media, Munetsi said: \u201cI\u2019m very happy to be here. I found a club where there are many players I already know, and I think that helped a lot because we already had some connections. I really liked the project. Even when I arrived here, I had many discussions with the coach, and for me it\u2019s mainly about trying to help the club stay in Ligue 1 and to have a strong second half of the season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are many players I\u2019ve played with before. They talked to me and told me that it\u2019s a very good club and that they are trying to achieve great things. First of all, there are the players \u2014 Ilan, Mustapha, Mathieu, Cafaro, and many others.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cFor me, playing here in Paris is also something special because I\u2019ve already played here before, especially against PSG. For me, it was also a dream to try to do something exceptional.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI find the coach very kind, and his ideas are very clear. That\u2019s why this project really interests me, because there is the sporting aspect but also the human aspect. We had very good discussions with him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere, it really feels a bit like Africa, because there are many players who have played in Africa. It\u2019s very important for me to stay connected with the players. I\u2019ve already watched many matches, and I think we will complement each other very well. For me, football is important, but beyond football, there are relationships \u2014 you have to be connected with your teammates.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related Posts<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\" async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Africa tv video display -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3579572842\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\">\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n#Marshall #Munetsi #explains #reason #pushed #join #French #Ligue #side #Paris<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marshall Munetsi has explained the reason that pushed him to join French Ligue 1 side Paris FC.
