In 2017, Gilles Favard and Yoann Riou had an altercation during the show The Evening Team. The first had threatened the second to hit him. Nearly ten years later, the hatchet is still not buried between the two men.
“I’m not going to give importance to a guy who has none. For me, it’s the delight of the nursery”, declared the former sports advisor of Waldemar Kita at FC Nantes, in the podcast Facing Raju. It refers here to a character always represented with arms raised towards the sky
as a sign of surprise, wonder and joy.
“He has no footballing culture,
he continues about the member of the Big Heads on
RTL. I’m not going to say hurtful things but the only thing I can tell you and that you might be able to confirm is that he is hated by everyone. Wherever he goes. And no one talks about it. »
Yoann Riou charged by Gilles Favard
At the time, Gilles Favard had been suspended several times from
The Evening Team. Notably for this altercation with his ex-comrade within Olivier Ménard’s gang, but also for controversial remarks concerning Hiroki Sakai, the former defender of Olympique de Marseille.
Renowned for his strong opinions, the 76-year-old man then made several appearances on the show Don’t touch my post. Cyril Hanouna took great pleasure in inviting him to put him in opposition to Gilles Verdez. Yoann Riou still appears regularly on the L’Equipe channel, as a columnist in Greg’s Team.
