Onet-le-Château. Bordeaux défend son titre en attendant des jours meilleurs
The tournament organized by the Castonetois club made its return yesterday, with the presence of many professional clubs, including that of the Girondins de Bordeaux, defending champion.
There were familiar faces from the professional world, yesterday afternoon under the Castonétoise heat wave, for the U13 international tournament at the La Roque complex. Such as former professional Anthony Weber, head of young Rémois, Serge Delmas, or former international Yannick Stopyra, now responsible for recruiting young people for the Bordeaux club. “Onet is an important tournament. For the occasion, and because there was another tournament in Corsica, we made a selection of young people from Bayonne, Bordeaux or Toulouse. Personally, it’s a region that I like. , I am happy to see Gilles again (Bush)like every time”, recognized the former center forward. Something to remember good memories, especially in the company of the former Toulouse coach or even Nîmes, Serge Delmas.
And also to mention the situation of the Girondins, demoted to National by the DNCG (National Management Control Department), a decision which they appealed. “Training is our base. Afterwards, if in ten days, the club files for bankruptcy… Training, completely implodes. So, even if we are not impacted by this move, we don’t know what he will be from the future. Given the people at the head of the club, I have confidence, they have solid reins. The transfers of Tchouaméni and possibly Koundé should also help.”adds the one who finished 3rd in the 1986 World Cup.
Perhaps an opportunity to rebuild and leave with players from the center. “When you’re at the top, it’s rare to get young people to play. It’s when there are problems that you can do it more easily. It can be a great opportunity in times of misfortune, like Sekou Mara (young center-forward from the Girondins who has revealed himself this season) “.
The Bordeaux selection will defend their title and will be in the quarter-finals today, after finishing 2nd in their pool yesterday.
