Platini, a cultural icon
Born in Jœuf on June 21, 1955, Michel Platini's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in French history. Platini's not just a great footballer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Michel hasn't done.

Happy Birthday, Michel, you're the best!
