http://www.euronews.net/ In the red half of Manchester, Eric Cantona is already known as 'the King'.




Now King Eric has his eye on the Elysée Palace, the official residence of the French head of state. The footballer-turned-actor wants to run for president in his native France.




The ex-Manchester United star needs at least 500 signatures from elected officials so he can enter this year's race.




Cantona concedes he is unlikely to win but wants to draw attention to social issues.
