It's a kind of homecoming.
One way to come full circle in a long career.
At 33, Loris Arnaud has decided to return to the lawns of his beginnings, in the Yvelines.
The former titi of the PSG training center, which he had joined at 12, signed up until the end of the season with the Versailles club, which is playing in National 2. A great operation and a reinforcement of weight for the club of President Daniel Voisin.
“FC Versailles is pleased to announce the arrival of Loris Arnaud, a 33-year-old striker trained at PSG, a club with which he played for 3 seasons in Ligue 1 between 2007 and 2010. He is returning from Indonesia, where he has played since 2018 ”, announces a press release from the club.

Born in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, Arnaud realized his childhood dream by joining the professional group of PSG then coached by Paul Le Guen in 2007. “I have PSG in my skin”, confided the person concerned in our columns in 2011. He is part of the team that won the League Cup in 2008. His only title under the Parisian colors.
Announced as a small nugget at the time, the striker has never succeeded in convincing the leaders and will be loaned to Clermont Angers to have playing time before leaving the Parisian club in 2013.
After his departure, his journey resembles a world tour of the exotic championships: Bulgaria, China, Vietnam, Indonesia.
This globetrotter is also the champion of this Vietnamese championship with Hanoi in 2016.
Without a club, he therefore decided to return to the grounds of his beginnings in the Paris region.
On the other hand, if the training sessions are maintained, we do not always know when Loris Arnaud will make his official debut with Versailles.
The club was eliminated from the Coupe de France and the championship is for the moment stopped due to my sanitary measures.
No recovery date is announced.
He was coached by Ancelotti
At PSG, Loris Arnaud has rubbed shoulders with great players like Nene, Matuidi, Gameiro, Luyindula.
He was also trained by the Italian Carlo Ancelotti.
