INFO:
Very fast, a prototype of the winger who overflows and centers. A French football sprinter, "Papa "was a hell of a customer for the somewhat brutal left-backs. His crosses were mostly sharp and low, and he was pretty dangerous in the 18yard box as well.

Patrick Parizon had already done a lot in the firmament of French football before opening his Sochalien chapter at the most beautiful age (27 years old). This winger of small size (1.70m) born in Le Creusot in 1950 had the devastating hook and was one of the leading men of Saint-Etienne in the late 60s. With a generation of hyper gifted like Salif Keita or Georges Bereta, he got his hands on the 1969 and 1970 championship titles and won Coupe de France 1970 where the Greens passed five goals without taking FC Nantes. The opening score of the 26th minute was a signature by Patrick Parizon. The rest of the green adventure is more bitter for "Papa". The late Robert Herbin arrives, he does not bring him into his projects. And he learned in the 1973-1974 off-season that he was transferred to Troyes. By telegram. At his holiday resort in Saint-Jean-de-Luz. It is the end of an epic of 110 games, 11 goals scored and a slew of decisive centers that were not counted in the stats. After Troyes, the executioner of the "left-backs" then operated three seasons at LOSC.

Then it was the arrival in Sochaux in the summer of 1977 just after the great rout of the Greens on the European scene. The first two seasons in Franche-Comté ended in the anonymity of the middle of the table. The team is well built. During his third opus in yellow and blue everything lights up. Patrick Parizon and his gang (Genghini, Anziani, Benoit, Posca, Durkalic) finished second in the championship a stone's throw from Nantes. The legacy of "Papa" in Sochaux ends in 93 matches and 9 goals scored.

Afterwards, he went on to Brest, Thonon and Niort where he ended his career as a player in 1985. His tactical intelligence naturally made him become a coach.
In 1975, he was selected to play for the French national team, where he gathered a total of 3 caps.
