As you know, Lyon winger Xavier Mignot will leave LOU Rugby in the coming days.
The latter will join the American championship.
He will play his last match with LOU Rugby, this Saturday afternoon against Perpignan, as part of the 14th day of the Top 14.
Questioned via Le Dauphiné, Xavier Mignot mentioned the latter under the colors of LOU. Extract:
“I don't think this match will be more important than others. This remains a pivotal moment of the season which should allow us to materialize and validate our two draws in our last two outings. We need to get back to winning ways and there is nothing better than doing it at home.
It's going to be my last match with Lyon. We discussed this aspect with Karim Ghezal and we decided that this would be my last match in Lyon colors. »
He then returns to his decision to leave LOU. Extract:
“Eight years in a club is a mark, these are things that do not leave you indifferent. I'm going to try to ignore all that. For me, the best outing will be to give everything and deliver a good individual performance which allows the collective to get a good performance and can get back on track for the future.
I try not to think about it too much and focus on the present moment, on what I can still bring to the club. I have the chance to be lined up on Saturday, I want to leave a beautiful image and a beautiful mark. It will be important to me to go out correctly. »
