“What are you implying?” » The scene was remembered, to the point of becoming quite viral for a jingle from the show L’Equipe du Soir, in which Bertrand Latour long held his strong opinions.
Four years ago, during Euro 2021, the journalist had a verbal altercation with
Kylian Mbappé during a press briefing for the French team. A lively exchange which resulted from the declarations of Olivier Giroud at the microphone of the same Latour, when the center forward complained of not “ not see the balloons arriving » targeting Mbappé without naming him.
Bertrand Latour returned to this episode in an interview for the Aliotalk podcast. “Giroud was a little annoyed by my question himself. I found him strange for a guy who had scored two goals against Bulgaria in that match. I know Giroud a little and I can see that he is not completely normal. I ask him the question, he throws what he has to throw and it sets a terrible fire. A few days later, Mbappé goes to a press conference and I am there. I want to make him react to that. Everyone understood that it was him who was targeted even if he had not been cited. He felt targeted since he was very angry.”
