The big day is approaching for Djibril Cissé. On May 27, the former French team striker will celebrate his jubilee at the Abbé-deschamps stadium. For the occasion will be a match between an eleven of the Auxerroises legends to a team “Cissé All-Stars”, bringing together the friends of the “Djib”.
And if the Auxerroise team will look great since Philippe Mexès, Olivier Kapo, Basile Boli, Corentin Martins, Steve Marlet, Olivier Kapo or even Jean-Alain Boumsong are announced, a rain of stars will compose the “Cissé All-Stars” team.
Admittedly, Zinedine Zidane should not be present, but Thierry Henry, Didier Drogba, Claude Makelélé, William Gallas, Samir Nasri, Florent Malouda or Robert Pirès will be there.

And there will also be beautiful people on the benches. Unsurprisingly, Guy Roux will be at the helm of the Auxerroise team, supported by Christophe Pélissier, and on the other side, it is a duo formed by Jean Pierre-Papin and Arsène Wenger who should officer.
Present at a press conference this Thursday, less than two weeks before the event, Djibril Cissé did not hide his impatience, saying that he is both “Excited” and “stressed”. “It's an organization, we want everything to go well for people who move. Between the moment when we talked about it and today a few days before the event, it went quickly. I tell myself that in a few days all this will be over and we will move on to something else. There is almost a little nostalgia before the hour… ”he said.
