Per Mertesacker on Bob Marley
The defender often played cards in the past with his friends, to compensate for the football. They heard a lot of music - and especially reggae music, especially Bob Marley. Because he liked the music so well, Mertesacker began at some point to be interested in the texts of the songs and the life story of Bob Marley. He could identify with the words of Marley. And Marley’s music was for him a balance to the focus on performance and fixity of purpose that should determine his job as a footballer. He admires the easy-going nature of the Jamaican, who died in 1981, but he was also interested in the social-critical background. “Marley’s music”, says Per Mertesacker “motivates to have not always have this tunnel vision when you look at things.”
