He announced his retirement last Monday on Canal+’s La Team, indicating that he would make it official soon. A week later, Serge Akakpo made his debut as a consultant on the French television channel.

On Monday, the defender and former Togolese international was selected by Canal+ to commentate on the match opposing Denizlispor to Trabzonspor on the occasion of the Turkish Super Lig 32nd day. This is the proof that the former Epervier really wants to definitely put the crampons away.

With this reconversion that is surprising, Serge Akakpo is the second former Togolese player to work at Canal+ as consultant. Dossevi paved the way before him making some appearances in the Europe 11 show several months ago. Good luck to him for his new career.
