Aymeric Laporte

Laporte : MONEY LOVE LIFE TATTOO CAR HOUSE

Aymeric Laporte was born in 1994 in Agen, France. The French footballer prefers to play as a centre back. He started his footballing carreer in the youth of his hometown team called SU Agen. Then he moved to the slightly bigger club with better perspectives: Aviron Bayonnais. Despite his French roots he never played one official game in the Ligue 1. No, he was clearly too good for that. The Spanish club Athletic Bilbao saw his potential and bought him in 2010. The first year they let him on loan to CD Baskonia, to get some more experienced. Baskonia played in the Tercera Division at the time, the fourth division of Spain. He played 33 games for them, and made his debut for Athletic in November 2012. It was a game against Hapoel Ironi Kiryat Shmona, for the Europe League. The defender played the whole match, and it was the start of something beautiful between him and Athletic. Athletic Bilbao is a unique club, since it has the philosophy that only Basque players are allowed to play for them. This it was they call the 'cantera policy'. Laporte was born in the French part of Basque Country, which made him a true 'Basque' and allowed to play for them. The French centre back played 6 years in the first eleven and made a huge impression. In 2018 he made the big move to England and signed a contract at “The Citizens”. Pep played many times against him with FC Barcelona, and followed him during his time at Bayern as well. Pep decided that the French footballer is worth 65 Million (58 Million Pound).
