Faced with major financial difficulties, Bordeaux was forced to ” accept administrative demotion ” pronounced by the DNCG, the financial policeman of French football, and thus renounce its status as a professional club. From then on, the Girondins will play in National 2 this season, the equivalent of the 4e division.
Forced to completely shake up its squad, the scapular team has recruited no fewer than 27 players in just a few days, RMC Sport reported on Tuesday. Among them, the Girondins have seen the return of several former players, such as Gregorz Krychowiak, Paul Baysse and Rio Mavuba, who came out of retirement to take out a license with his training club.
“Hello Girondins, where do we sign?”
A movement followed by Yoann Gourcuff? Retired from the field since 2019, the former number 10 of the Girondins has received several calls in this direction on social networks? Hello Girondins, where do we sign? “, launched the parody X account of the former French international. From there to make the Breton think about putting his boots back on? Nothing is less certain…
For five years now, the very discreet Gourcuff has been thriving in his life as a stay-at-home dad, alongside his partner Karine Ferri and his children. Settled in Morbihan, he would not intend to return to service, according to his friend Grégory Sertic. We remained very close, he recently told us. Even today, we keep in touch with each other quite a bit. He has his family life, his tennis, I think it’s the first time since he stopped that he put his shoes back on for the 100th anniversary of Parc Lescure, it really shows that today, he has put football aside, he is with his wife Karine, his children and he loves his life.
