It seems that Benoît Costil, the 25-year-old goalkeeper for Rennes, was voted the sexiest player in Ligue 1 by the magazine “Têtu” and its Internet users. This recognition put him ahead of well-known names like Zlatan Ibrahimović. Costil shared his feelings about this title in an interview with Le Parisien.
He admitted feeling a bit embarrassed at the time of the election, not fully understanding what he was getting into. However, he acknowledged that it’s flattering and seems to take it in stride. Costil noted that perceptions of attractiveness in football can sometimes be influenced by factors like playing for PSG and earning a high salary.
Costil also shared his thoughts on personal style, expressing a preference for well-dressed outfits and beautiful photos. However, he mentioned that his wardrobe might not be as extensive or luxurious as some of his fellow footballers.
In a lighthearted manner, Costil mentioned that despite being voted the sexiest player, he hasn’t received any love letters or declarations of love. He joked about not even receiving underwear. Overall, it seems like he has a down-to-earth attitude about the recognition and a sense of humor about the attention that comes with it.
