In a dedication of his Stade Toulousain jersey for Djibril Cissé, Antoine Dupont indicated that he was a fan of AJ Auxerre thanks to the French striker. This Wednesday, the Burgundy club reacted to this astonishing news.
Antoine Dupont will always amaze us. Usually it is his performances that continue to impress, as evidenced by his hat-trick against Clermont in just nine minutes a little over two weeks ago, for his big return to the Top 14.
But this time, it is through a dedication that the captain of the XV of France confided that he is a supporter… of Auxerre. Before leaving to join his compatriots in Marcoussis, the scrum half offered his autographed Stade Toulousain jersey, flocked No. 9, to Djibril Cissé, who also wore this number at AJA, OM and Liverpool.
“For Djibril, who made me a fan of AJA”
On the jersey, Dupont wrote: “For Djibril, who made me a fan of AJA. Kind regards, Antoine.” On social networks, this revelation caused a stir. Until reaching the ears of the French club, which commented on this confidence.
“Okay so, here we are, at the office, on a slightly foggy Tuesday, and we learn thanks to Djibril Cissé, that Antoine Dupont is a fan of the AJA. We already knew that you were a very big Antoine, but then there…”, reacted with great joy the Burgundy club on its X account.
This dedication obviously made people happy. Antoine Dupont now wants to delight the French with the French XV jersey, for his big return to the selection, one year later during the autumn tour against Japan, New Zealand and Argentina.
