Why Antoine Dupont made a detour to Montpellier before joining the XV of France

Antoine Dupont has iron health. Immediately after the humiliation inflicted on Leicester on Sunday (kick-off at 4:15 p.m.), the Toulouse captain left for Montpellier (Hérault). And this Monday, January 20, he returned to the French XV in Marcoussis (Essonne) to prepare for the 2025 6 Nations Tournament.

Match against Leicester – Enfoirés concert: Dupont continues

Author of a double against the Tigers (80-12) and a new high-flying copy, Antoine Dupont hardly savored the gain of an 8^e home Champions Cup final.

Everything was organized so that the scrum half from Toulouse joined the Sud de France Arena in Pérols (Hérault), south of Montpellier, as quickly as possible in order to take part in the recording of the Enfoirés concert. This started around 7:30 p.m., and Dupont intervened a little before 10 p.m.

Throughout the week, the Enfoirés troupe performed a series of concerts for the big annual Restos du Cœur show. Antoine Dupont participated Sunday evening, around 10 p.m., at 6^e of them.

Antoine Dupont with the Lebrun brothers

Olympic champion during the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, Antoine Dupont found on the stage, in addition to the usual Zazie, Patrick Bruel, Jean-Louis Aubert or Mimie Mathy, two other Olympic gold medalists: the brothers Félix and Alexis Lebrun. The latter are from Montpellier, and their presence was an opportunity to give a nice nod to the host city.
