While he would have met the leaders of Sunderland in London, Will Still, the coach of Stade de Reims, assures that it is a completely different reason which encouraged him to visit the English captain.
We don’t have to believe everything coaches say at press conferences, especially about transfers. And this also applies to their own situation, like that of Will Still, who is said to be in contact with Sunderland. According to several British media, the Stade de Reims coach even met the leaders of the Black Cats in London.
The main person concerned denied it, providing a rather unusual explanation. “On Monday, I went to London but to go see my girlfriend who is English and lives in London, he assured. I think I’ve become a loyal Eurostar customer because I’ve been going back and forth every week for three or four months to see my girlfriend. »
The Belgian-British technician still admitted that clubs were interested in him, but he assures that he will stay in Reims until the end of the season, “unless Reims fires (him)”. “You made some very, very beautiful stories out of it, he replied to the media. And I can’t deny the fact that there is interest in me, I confirm that. As there have been in the past, as this summer and as in recent weeks. I find it quite flattering without being arrogant at all or without being pretentious. »
