Returned in the 83rd minute instead of Lucas PaquetáJRA was finally able to play football again. “I thank the whole club, the staff, and the players like all the people of Nice. The club has always supported me, like my teammates, so these expressions of sympathy made me happy.” he explained to The Team.
“It forged a mentality in me”
Taking advantage in particular of the absence in the group of Tanguy Ndombelethe 24-year-old was therefore called up by Peter Bosz for this meeting against the Hakes. From now on, Jeff-Queen Adelaide expect to chain: “I am coming out of two very complicated years, but it has forged my mentality and I hope that the injuries will leave me alone now so that I can flourish on the pitch, explained the former Angevin to the sports daily before continuing: In the hard times, I needed the help of my family, it was she who pushed me to continue”.
