The Girondins de Bordeaux formalized an important arrival this Thursday.
After a season that ended in general confusion, Bordeaux will start their new campaign with the ambition of getting involved very quickly in the fight for the climb. And to satisfy its ambitions, the Aquitaine club struck a first blow on the transfer market by announcing the arrival of a reinforcement of weight, this Thursday.
Bordeaux has indeed formalized the signing of central defender Harisson Marcelin. Trained at AJ Auxerre and revealed in Ligue 2 4 years ago, the powerful Reunionese, who belonged to AS Monaco, signed a contract for the next four seasons with the Girondins de Bordeaux. He will therefore be linked to the club until 2027.
Bordeaux affirms its ambitions
” Aged 23, Harisson has an impressive size (1m97, 82 kg). An athletic defender, he has great qualities in the duel and the aerial game, but also a real room for improvement. FC Girondins de Bordeaux is very happy to make a long-term commitment with Harisson. We wish him to flourish and express his full potential in the Scapular jersey.“, the club said in an official statement.
By attracting this very identified defender, Bordeaux confirms its ambition at the dawn of a Ligue 2 season which promises to be rich and homogeneous, with the presence of other strongholds of French football such as Saint-Etienne, Auxerre, Troyes, Angers or Ajaccio.
