I am proud that I have Armenian roots, said the famous football
player, French national team former player Youri Djorkaeff, during
the interview with Ukrainian Football.ru.
I am very close to Armenia and I know little Armenian. Sometimes we
use Armenian expressions in my family. It is in my blood and it is
very important for me, said Djorkaeff.
“It is already 7 years that I live in New York. I develop children’s
football program in USA. I often take part in charity meetings;
I’ve opened my charity foundation. I try to help those who need it,”
said Djorkaeff.
