Lucas Hernandez said in a recent interview that he has no connection with Marseille. A journalist took it upon himself to remind him otherwise.
French international Lucas Hernandez made provocative remarks against OM and Marseille in a recent interview with L’Equipe. He claimed that there is nothing that binds him to this team and this city. Surprising words, especially since they do not reflect reality.
“Lucas Hernandez doesn’t have to say that kind of thing”
Bernard Lions, the seasoned journalist from L’Equipe, took it upon himself to remind the neo-Parisian of the meaning of family. “He says there are no ties, whereas his father “JF” (Jean-François) played there. He brought the club up to Division 1 in 1996. I don’t think you have to apologize for where you were born, ”he said on his group’s channel.
Indeed, Hernandez Sr played for OM for two years in the mid-1990s. If Lucas does not talk about it, it may be because he and his brother Theo have cut ties with their father and do not want hear too much about it.
Lions were not the only ones to criticize the exit of the 2018 world champion. This was also the case of Eric Blanc. The former rugby player felt that “you can’t say that kind of thing about your worst opponent”. Finally, the same story with Etienne Moatti, who wondered: “If he had grown up in Marseille, what would that change? He could not have played at PSG? »
