During the broadcast Sunday in politics broadcast this Sunday, December 15, Damien Comolli shared a bold idea that could mark the history of sport in France: “Why not be the first city in France to have a football match followed by a rugby match against the same city, the same afternoon at the Stadium? It would be something extraordinary. We could do Montpellier-TFC in football and Stade Toulousain-Montpellier on the same day. » This idea, discussed for four years between the two leaders, would be a way of bringing together football and rugby around the same sporting event, in a spirit of collaboration and innovation.
Damien Comolli also highlighted the close relationship between the two Toulouse clubs: “Our teams work a lot together […] Our coaches talk together. » Comments echoed by Didier Lacroix who also welcomes this collaboration: “ With Damien Comolli, we are lucky to have mutual friends, common passions. We do a lot of things together, especially in thinking. Our teams work together regularly. We have common land and we will have other common land, we will reveal that to you a little later. He remains someone so reliable, so knowledgeable, so much more international than us, that we progress every day by talking to him. »
For Damien Comolli, this type of unprecedented event is part of a broader strategy: transforming Toulouse into an essential sporting capital, where the values of sport combine with innovation. This double football-rugby clash at the Stadium could therefore be much more than a historic day: a symbol of unity and sporting excellence that Toulouse aspires to embody.
