Jean-Luc Le Magueresse was born on 25 April 1961 in La Rochelle, Nouvelle-Aquitaine.[1] His ancestors are originally from Pluméliau, Guénin, and Remungol, towns in the Brittany region of France. His surname in Breton, Ar Vagerez, means La Nourrice, translating to nanny.[citation needed]
Le Magueresse is a youth product of INF Vichy. He left the academy in 1980 to join Division 2 club Brest, where he would win the title and achieve promotion to the Division 1 in his first season.[citation needed] In 1986, he joined Division 1 club RC Paris (renamed Matra Racing in 1987). After two seasons in Paris, he joined fellow first-tier side Lens.[1] However, after only one season in Lens during which the club was relegated, he returned to his native region of Brittany to play for Guingamp. Le Magueresse retired at the club in 1991. During his career, he made a total of 155 Division 1 appearances and 45 Division 2 appearances.[citation needed]
Le Magueresse had two daughters with Muriel Leroy, named Kay and Nolwenn. They divorced in 1993. Nolwenn, under the last name of her mother, became a prominent singer.[2] Le Magueresse's relationship with Nolwenn has been described as "very complicated".[3]
In the 2010s decade, Le Magueresse was a technical adviser for TV Breizh. In 2009, he began working in the commercial departments of his former club Brest.[citation needed]
