In the Paris suburb of Poissy, the president played as a midfielder with the Variétés Club de France at a charity match. The occasion was the 50th birthday of the club, in which former professional players and others have teamed up for friendship and charity games, as announced by the Élysée Palace.
The proceeds of the game with Macron against a hospital team go to a hospital foundation. The President then invited members and volunteers of the club to dinner in the Elysée Palace.
