Jacques "Jacky" Bade (born 2 November 1945) is a Guadeloupean former professional footballer who played as a defender.[1] Born in Guadeloupe, he played for the France amateur national team and represented Guadeloupe at senior level during his career.[2]

Club career

Bade played for several different clubs during his career. He initially started off as a youth player for his hometown club of JS Capesterre before joining FC Tarascon in France. He had departed to metropolitan France in 1964 in order to pursue medical studies.[3]

In January 1966, Bade joined Division 1 club Toulouse. However, he would only make a total of two appearances for the club, leaving in 1967. Three years later, he signed for amateur club Albi.[1]

In 1973, Bade signed for Paris Saint-Germain, joining to help the Parisian defense. He therefore reunited with his mentor Just Fontaine (manager of PSG at the time), with whom he had shared a linked path in Toulouse, Albi, and Paris.[3] With PSG, Bade would go on to make 62 appearances across all competitions.[1] He retired at the age of 31 in 1976 after suffering a serious ligament injury.[3]

International career

Bade previously played for the France amateur national team. He also represented his native island of Guadeloupe at cadet, youth, and senior level.[2]

Player profile

Being a defender, Bade's style of play was compared to the one of Marius Trésor for his strong interventions in play. However, despite his capabilities, he was injury-prone, having dealt with various adductor and ligament injuries during his career.[3]

After football

After having completed his final exam in pediatrics a couple of months after retiring from football in 1976, Bade returned to Guadeloupe and opened a pediatric office in Pointe-à-Pitre. He still worked in this job as of 2013.[3] From 1990 up to at least 2013, he was president of the Football Artistique Club (FAC), who participated in numerous friendly matches.[3]

Personal life

Jacky's father Ludovic was the mayor of Capesterre-de-Marie-Galante, Jacky's birthplace, from 1935 to 1971.[3]

His brother José died in 1994. He was a big fan of sports and cycling. A stadium in Capesterre was named in honour of him.[3]
