Nicolas Paolorsi: “We can say that despite the complicated start to the season, this is a team that will have a string of victories, and therefore why not play for the climb at the end of the season”

On France 3 Nouvelle Aquitaine, the journalist Nicolas Paolorsi, answered the question of whether he saw the Girondins de Bordeaux returning to the top in the years to come.

“If Bordeaux will return to the top? Yes. I want to believe it. Afterwards, when we say at the top, in Ligue 1, yes, I am convinced of it. In addition, for once, the Girondins de Bordeaux have made a recruitment compared to the other N2 teams which is still quite interesting, with players who have a real CV. We can say that despite the complicated start to the season, this is a team that will have a string of victories, and therefore why not play for the climb at the end of the season. If you switch back to National next year, well, everything is possible… But once again, the major challenge in the reconstruction of the Girondins is the reduction of this debt. If Gérard Lopez manages to reduce this debt, this could also perhaps attract investors. We talked about the Fenway group, the owners of Liverpool at the time. There are groups who are interested in the Girondins, it represents so much economically. Even the city of Bordeaux represents so many things that why not. Afterwards, it's going to be long. Strasbourg was long, Bastia too, and it will be long for the Girondins. And above all, I have a little difficulty, when I saw the management of Gérard Lopez over the last three years, to tell myself that we are going to rebuild a club with correct, healthy, simple management, and that that can really put the club back on track.”
