Jérémy Menez (born May 7, 1987 in Longjumeau) is a French football player who currently plays for AS Monaco after signing in June 2006 from FC Sochaux in Ligue 1. A playmaker by trade, he is noted for being the youngest ever scorer of a hat trick in Ligue 1, the youngest ever winner of Ligue 1's player of the month award and has sometimes been compared to Zinédine Zidane. Despite being a playmaker he is more known for his dribbling and pace than his passing. Inter Milan has been keen on the player offering as much as 10 million euros for his services. However, Monaco has asked for 15 million euros.^[1].
