For Alternative Football, the former commercial and development director of the Girondins de Bordeaux, Jacques D'Arrigoremembered his arrival at Haillan, explaining that he had cleaned all his social networks of past traces, because he was born in Marseille.
“No one knew that I came from Marseille, I had 'cleaned' my social networks. Not long before me, there was a story with a guy from PSG called Jérôme de Chaunac, who was in charge of the Americas, and who had been bothered by the Parisian supporters, because he was a Marseille supporter. There are several things in my arrival. It's the end of Jocelyn Gourvennec who after a great first season, where he finished best coach in Ligue 1 it seems to me, he has a catastrophic start to the 2017-2018 year, despite a dream team: Malcom, Costil, Toulalan …”.
The departure of Breton will take place with Jérémy Toulalanout of loyalty. Jacques d'Arrigo
rightly reports an anecdote concerning the midfielder, the day before his departure from Gironde and therefore his retirement as a professional footballer.
“Jérémy Toulalan, I met him for three weeks. There was an anecdote, you were allowed to eat in the kitchen, well in the shed, a steak and fries if you scored a goal. And the day before Gourvennec left, I saw Toulalan eating steak and fries, and he hadn't scored… There, I said to myself shit, something was happening. In fact, he knew that out of respect for Jocelyn Gourvennec, he was going to leave the club straight away, after a colossal career.”
