Arnaud Bodart introduced himself to FC Metz supporters. Tomorrow, he is preparing to discover Saint-Symphorien.
Arriving in Metz 48 hours before the summit match in Lorient, Arnaud Bodart did not really have time to introduce himself to the garnet people. His first words came after the 0-0 obtained with the leader.
Yesterday, he appeared at a press conference to preface his home debut against Paris FC: “When a historic club like Metz contacts you, you don’t think twice. It’s great to discover another environment, a new way of working,” he rejoices.
The counterpart of playing in the second division is to fight again for the top places: “Playing for the climb, it’s a very nice project. It’s the style of emotions that we look for as players. I I’m going to do everything to get there, I’m keen to help the team.”
-Metz knew how to seize the opportunity
Bodart is already appreciated by his new trainer Stéphane Le Mignan: “Arnaud integrated very quickly, helped by the group who welcomed him very well. He brings, through his experience, a lot of serenity. He must now gain in benchmarks with his teammates.
Sports director Frédéric Arpinon is also under the spell. “It happened quite quickly, and fortunately, because it was quite urgent to sign a new goalkeeper. We consider ourselves lucky to have achieved this transfer.” Arnaud Bodart will he remain in the memories of his new supporters by helping to bring the team up to Ligue 1?
