He embodied one of the golden periods of the Girondins de Bordeaux alongside his friends Zinédine Zidane and Christophe Dugarry: Bixente Lizarazu will remain one of the greatest representatives in the history of the club with the scapular. His reaction was therefore scrutinized after the terrible administrative relegation of
Bordeaux in National 1.
In a long message posted on his Instagram account, the TF1 consultant did not mince his words. Hello everyone. A short message on the dramatic situation of the Girondins de Bordeaux. I’m going to get straight to it. I’m disgusted like everyone who loves this club. But what’s happening is unfortunately the consequence of disastrous sporting and financial management for many years.” thundered the 1998 world champion.
Lizarazu calls on Lopez to “disappear from Bordeaux and the southwest”
Lizarazu is very clear: in his eyes, Gérard Lopez is the number one person responsible for the current situation. Since the arrival of Gerard Lopez, it is beyond understanding and stubbornness. Relegation from Ligue 1 to Ligue 2 for sporting reasons. Relegation from L2 to N1 (or N2) for administrative and financial reasons… And I read that Gerard Lopez intends to remain president and owner…? Seriously… First of all, this gentleman must disappear from Bordeaux and our dear southwest“, said the former defender.
” From there, maybe a sustainable reconstruction project can be started. It will take time, because we will have to start from afar and heal the wounds. In any case, I sincerely hope that this great club will one day find its place at the top of French football (but without GG if that’s not clear enough for the idiots). Good luck to all“, concluded Bixente Lizarazu. A message that perfectly reflects the thoughts of the former glories of the Girondins de Bordeaux.
