Anne Blanc

Anne Blanc is famous for being a spouse to French-born professional football manager Laurent Blanc. 

Blanc is the current head coach of Qatari club Al-Rayyan. He is the former player as well as former France and PSG boss.

She and her husband have been together since the day they were born

Anne and her future husband Laurent were destined to be together. They were born two days apart in Ales, and since the day to date, they never left one another. 

Their parents were close friends, due to which they got to spend a lot of time together, from being walked in the same strollers with their mothers to attending the same school from Kindergarten to high school. 

After their high school, Anne chose to study Law while Laurent went on to pursue his career in football. Later, they exchanged their wedding vows to be forever together.

Mother of three sons

Anne is the mother of her three sons, Alex, Clement, and Davy. All of her three sons are now grown-ups and have chosen their careers outside football.

Despite being the wife of one of the decorated managers, Anne lives an extremely private life. 

She has been her spouse’s friend, his companion, his partner and is there for him, supporting him unconditionally behind the spotlight.

Her husband was linked with Manchester United several times

Laurent was one of the top candidates for Manchester United to fill the vacant post of Interim Manager after the dismissal of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. 

Laurent previously played for Manchester United between 2001-2003, but he confessed to regretting not signing the Manchester United earlier in 1996 when Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson was interested in signing him, but he had already signed for Barca at the time. 

Not only this time but was linked with Manchester United a couple of times for the managerial post. 

At first, he was close to taking over the manager post in 2014 after the sacking of David Moyes, but he was at Paris Saint-Germain at the time, so it was difficult for him to make the decision. 

He was once again linked with the club after Jose Mourinho’s sacking, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer took over in the end.

Recently Manchester United was on the search for their Interim manager, and he was once again linked, but in the end, Ralf Rangnick took over.

First golden goal scorer in the World Cup history

Blanc’s career has spanned nearly four decades playing for several clubs, including Montpellier, Barcelona, Inter Milan, Manchester United, etc., and managing several clubs like Bordeaux, France, Paris Saint-Germain, and currently Al-Rayyan. 

He enjoyed a glittering playing career. He represented his country, earning 97 caps and scoring 16 international goals and was part of the 1998 FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro 2000 that France won. 

Furthermore, he created history by becoming the first golden goal scorer in the World Cup History in the Round of 16, defeating Paraguay. 

He hung up his boots in 2003, being Manchester United his last club. 

His managerial career began with Bordeaux in 2007 where he spent successful three seasons leading the club to second place in Ligue 1 in the first season, setting the record of consecutive wins in the second season along with winning 2008-09 Coupe de la Ligue and topping a group in 2009-10 Champions League campaign in his third season. 

He resigned from his post to take over France, where he spent two seasons before signing Paris Saint-Germain in June 2013. 

He was dismissed from his post after three years at the helm despite his successive domestic trebles. After four years of exile from his work, he was signed by Al-Rayyan.
