At the heart of an incredible soap opera in the spring of 2005, Yoann Gourcuff saw the president of the Girondins de Bordeaux respond scathingly, on April 3, to rumors suggesting his return to the club.
Yoann Gourcuff’s story with Olympique Lyonnais quickly turned bad. The Breton midfielder has never been able to meet the (huge) expectations placed on him by the Lyon club after spending nearly 30 million to snatch him from the Girondins Bordeaux in the summer of 2010.
“We are not second-hand dealers”
However, the prospect of seeing his former playmaker return does not appeal to Jean-Louis Triaud, the Bordeaux president. Asked to react to these rumors, the Gironde leader showed no pity for Yoann Gourcuff on April 3, 2005. “We are not second-hand dealers. If it is to return to Bordeaux in the same physical state as he is in Lyon, he will not bring much », he said at the microphone of Eurosport.
However, the president of the scapular club assures that he “thinks well” about Yoann Gourcuff and does not want to be forced to say bad things about him. But his comments go against those made by Nicolas de Tavernost, the president of M6, owner of the club. “Gourcuff is a player that we greatly appreciate in Bordeaux”he confided, adding: “ If he is available at the end of the season, we will watch that carefully. » But this look will not do well and it is ultimately in Rennes that the Breton player will try to bounce back.
AND BREF
Yoann Gourcuff left Olympique Lyonnais in 2015 after five turbulent years and performances below expectations.
Rumors had mentioned a return of Gourcuff to Bordeaux, but the Bordeaux president, Jean-Louis Triaud, had expressed severe reservations about his physical state.
Despite the interest expressed by Nicolas de Tavernost, president of M6, Yoann Gourcuff will ultimately join Rennes to relaunch his career.
