One of the chapters that marked his life was the death of his sister when she was barely five years old. “I find peace writing about my sister. Died in a domestic electrical accidentit was a very hard moment,” he said in an interview on Telecinco after presenting the book.
Robin explains that it helped him and his family get over his sister’s death by “putting words over our emotions.” Le Normand explains how at different times in his life he has had to fight his demons. “That part of doubts, of fear, of believing that you are no longer fit for football or for your life”.
Another topic that the defender touches on in his autobiography is the problems he had with the casinos in San Sebastián. “I lost track of money a little bit. In my case, the balance has been positive because I have had people at my side who have made me realize the value of money,” he says.
