This week on More Than a Match, we sit down with Scunthorpe United defender Jean Belehouan to hear his incredible, unpredictable football journey.
From starting out at Manchester United’s famed Carrington Academy alongside D’Mani , to the behind-the-scenes realities of life in elite youth football, Jean opens up about the highs and lows of the game.
He shares how signing his first professional contract at Sheffield United brought new challenges — and how, after falling out of love with football, he walked away from the sport altogether to become an Amazon delivery driver.
But that wasn’t the end. Jean talks about his bounce back, launching JB Sessions, the elite private training brand that’s attracted the likes of Cole Palmer, Angel Gomes and Jeremie Frimpong.
Now back in pro football with Scunthorpe, he reflects on lessons learned, and reveals what’s next — on and off the pitch.
