For Givet, Marseille has recruited “a golgoth who is not afraid of anything” – Sport.fr
If Olympique de Marseille has lost William Saliba and is looking for a replacement, the Marseille club must not forget that Samuel Gigot is also in the squad. Recruited this winter at Spartak Moscow, he will land in Marseille, all to the delight of Gaël Givet.
Former player of AS Monaco or Blackburn in England, he addressed this arrival and he thinks that Marseille has achieved a huge blow with a player of very high quality. “For me, he’s a fearless golgoth. He comes out of nowhere, but it was logical that he evolves like that given his qualities, his state of mind and his personality. I’m really not surprised to see it reach this level. I even think he can go even higher, or he could have signed for a big foreign club. Marseille supporters will learn to find out. He has the perfect mindset for the city, the club and the fans. He’s a warrior, he gives everything. He was always appreciated wherever he went, whether by his coaches, by his teammates and by the supporters. When you are unanimous, it means a lot. » Explains the one who wore the same jersey as Samuel Gigot when the two men wore the colors of Arles Avignon in Ligue 1. 28-year-old Samuel Gigot had been playing at Spartak Moscow since July 2018. He notably played 37 matches, in all competitions together this season.
