OM made many changes last summer and Samuel Gigot paid the price. The French defender was pushed out after being placed in the unwanted loft. This Sunday, he will be happy to watch his favorite club face his friend Pierre Cornud who now plays for ASSE.
Very attached to OM, Samuel Gigot lost his arm wrestling this summer and he was thus forced to leave the Marseille city to find playing time. The Avignon player is playing at Lazio Rome but he keeps an eye on what is happening in France. This Sunday evening, he will support loon facing the AXIS despite the presence of his friend Pierre Cornud in the Saint-Etienne squad.
“I’m very happy for him”
Samuel Gigot is delighted to see his childhood friend playing in one of the biggest clubs in France. “ I'm very happy for him. We are very proud to see him playing in L1, in a great club like Saint-Étienne. He's a hard worker who never gave up, he has a strong mind. On a human level, she is a beautiful person, with her feet on the ground. Whatever challenges he faces, he always pushes through. It's not easy when you leave home young. He had to make his mark elsewhere, redouble his efforts, his work “, declared Samuel Gigot in the columns of Provence.
“I wish him the best”
« Now he is where he wanted to be, at home in France, thanks to his determination. This is to his credit. Let him love it, he has all the qualities to perform in France. I wish him the best, a big match this weekend but a victory for OM of course! », then added the former defender of loon. A beautiful message.
