Episode 251 - The life and times of Nikola Karabatic with L'Equipe's Yann Hildwein

With 40-year-old Nikola Karabatic about to make his last stand as a handball player, leading France at a home Olympics in search of a fourth gold medal, we pay tribute to his career with the help of L'Equipe journalist Yann Hildwein.

From medals to match-fixing and his greatest moments, we fly through his career spanning over two decades, discussing what made him so special and what lies ahead for him and France over the next two weeks.

This marks the start of our Paris 2024 coverage, which we will bring to you from the heart of the action. Join us on patreon.com/handballhour to enjoy bonus episodes, our community discord and fantasy handball competition.
