On RMC, the former central defender of Chelsea or the French team, Frank Leboeufjoined his ex-teammate with the Blues on the air, Christophe Dugarry. The first thus revealed his relationship with the second and former Girondins de Bordeaux forward, now a consultant, a relationship which evolved over the years, leading to love.
“We discovered each other, in fact… With Duga, we were in the French team, but he was often with Zizou and Vincent Candela, and I was often with Bixente (Lizarazu) or Manu (Petit). It's true that I discovered Duga, but really, when he came to Qatar, in fact. I discovered an extraordinary guy. Often, I defend him, there are some who say that he is crazy, that he says anything… I tell them to leave him alone, that he is in his show. My Duga is an extraordinary guy, and I love him very much.”
However, it was not during the French team's warm-ups that they got closer, at least in the technical area. Because even in 98, there was a level gap on this level.
“Well, for us, the warm-up was less technical, eh… When you were warming up, but one day, by chance, you came to train with Duga, Zizou or Vincent (Candela)… They sent you sausages (laughs). They were great technical players.”
