the essential Following our presentation of the recruits of the Valencian Future, here is Thomas Piquemal, opening half.
As planned, we continue our gallery of rookie portraits with an opening half, Thomas Piquemal, who can also evolve at the back. By making his off-season market, the manager trainer Nicolas Crubilé wanted to hire boys who can occupy other positions, which will allow him to juggle in case he has injured people to replace.
This is why in the fourteen new players can almost all occupy another position. Thomas Piquemal (22 years old, 1.80 m, 78 kg) played last season in number 10, in Aubenas, in national division 2 with Alexis Renou who wore the Valencian jersey two seasons ago. A young player who started in Haute-Garonne: “I started rugby in Grenade-sur-Garonne, I was just 5 years old, I stayed there until my first year juniors and Montauban asked me to join them. I did a season as juniors and three years with Crabos at the academy and then I signed for Aubenas. I spent a season there, we were three number 10s, I played seven games, and I wanted to come back to the area.” Contacted by Nicolas Crubilé, the young recruit did not hesitate long to agree.
“I trust ‘Nico’
“When I was still in Montauban, “Nico” had already contacted me, I had refused a year ago, and this time, I didn’t have much time in Aubenas, I said yes to him because I trust him for the game project, and I understood that I could count on him.” Delighted with the welcome from the players and the staff, the player who spent time in Montauban had no trouble fitting in: “I’ve been here for two weeks and I feel like I’ve been here for a long time. first day, I integrated very quickly, I found Mehdi Ahaouche and Adrien Alavoine whom I knew, the group is very young and it is easier to integrate.
