The Galtier affair, born from the revelation of an email in which Julien Fournier, the former director of OGC Nice, accuses the former Nice coach of discriminatory remarks, continues to agitate the football community. This weekend, Thierry Henry, the 1998 world champion and consultant for Prime Video broadcaster of Ligue 1, gave his opinion in turn: “There is already something that is certain, says the former Monegasque, c is that we are not sure. And that’s not wrong. “We are not sure what happened, continues the ex-Gunner. How can some people say “he said that” or “he didn’t say that”? You were not there. That’s why there is doubt and why we all have questions. They (Galtier and Fournier) must know. So I have a hard time understanding this kind of discussion about: defending it or not? »
In the process, the 2000 European champion with the Blues slips: “There is something that concerns me. We don’t hear anything from the other side among the people of Nice. We had a three-line press release like when I was doing my writing and I didn’t really want to explain what happened in the subject. Personally, I’m waiting for the people of Nice to be able to have an idea even if I wasn’t there. He continues: “Why do the people of Nice not speak? I sensed a situation where they wanted to say things. But the more the days progressed, the less certainty there is. I understand, there is an ongoing investigation but in Nice, there is someone who must come and talk. OK, we are talking about people (Galtier and Fournier) who are no longer at the club but we are talking about your institution. We will still have to explain what happened. I saw people defending one side (at PSG) but why on the other, it doesn’t defend? I’m wondering “.
Thierry Henry resumes his train of thought: “I had the impression that players wanted to talk, that coach Digard wanted to talk. They said “the truth will come out” and it ended in “We are concentrating on Brest”. There is still a gap in four days. Someone nice needs to talk. The question is there: why the people of Nice do not speak? It is still an important subject”.
