Among the 104 legends present at the Pierre-Mauroy stadium to celebrate the 80th anniversary of LOSC, José Fonte savored this moment of history in the company of his son, who accompanies him everywhere. The former captain, champion in 2021, measures the mark he has left.
José, what does it feel like to come back to Pierre-Mauroy?
“Already, it’s nice to see you (smile). It's fantastic to be there with all the former players, with the club, the supporters, the president, the current players. I am very, very happy. My son is ecstatic too. It was a great evening with a great victory, everything went well.
Have you ever seen your head this big (on the tifo)?
No, it's incredible to see that. My son was impressed: “Dad, look!” It was a great experience.
Who remains of the champion LOSC team in 2021?
There is Jonathan David and Benjamin André. (He hesitates for a long time.) And I think that's all! (Laughs.) It goes by quickly…”
