PARIS (AP) \u2014 After winning his first Golden Globe<\/a>, Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet said it was a good start to the new year.<\/p>\n

But making 2026 a perfect year would require more than the French-American movie star\u2019s acting skills.<\/p>\n

Asked by French magazine Paris-Match during the ceremony whether it could be \u201cthe year of Chalamet,\u201d he was quoted as saying that \u201cfor 2026 to be truly perfect, Saint-Etienne will have to be promoted back to Ligue 1 next season.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chalamet was referring to the soccer team he supports, a storied name in France that has lost much of its former luster and was relegated to the second tier last season.<\/p>\n

Saint-Etienne \u2014 which has 10 league titles to its name \u2014 dominated French soccer during the 1960s and \u201970s. A proud club with working-class roots, Saint-Etienne fell into mediocrity in the 1980s in the aftermath of a financial scandal.<\/p>\n

Chalamet inherited his love for the club from his father and has often spoken with passion about the team and its players. <\/p>\n

After 18 rounds of matches this season, Saint-Etienne sits fourth in Ligue 2, just one point behind second place, which would secure promotion back to the top level.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old Chalamet won his first Golden Globe, for \u201cMarty Supreme,\u201d after four previous nominations. He is considered a top contender for his first Oscar.<\/p>\n
