Speculation fueled the final days of 2024, Nantes. While the FCN experienced a very delicate first part of the season, Antoine Kombouaré was announced as leaving by numerous media, particularly local. Weakened, the Kanak technician was finally kept in his position.
But Kombouaré did not appreciate this episode at all and wanted to make it known for the first press conference of the year. To mark the occasion, the former PSG coach simply decided to leave the room after a short monologue.
Lunar scene in Nantes
“Excuse me, I’m going to ask you not to interrupt me. I’m going to do something that will surprise you. In any case, that’s what I am. Where will I start? You’ve written a lot of things. I didn’t take it into account because it was a difficult situation for the club and for me. But so, it was normal given the results. I made a decision today, you will quickly understand why, you journalists must also question yourselves. That’s my point of view, you’re not going to agree but I don’t really care,” thundered Antoine Kombouaré.
“What bothers me a lot is that you were unanimous and above all categorical on the fact that today I will no longer be the coach of FC Nantes,” continued the Nantes coach. Everyone, everyone here in the room. There was only one person who apologized. I would have liked to expect from you either writings to the effect that you were wrong because you were completely wrong. If I stay there, I will be unpleasant and even mean because I don’t want to be there. You wrote anything and everything. You messed up, I’ll let you work and I’ll retire! It can’t happen like that, without consequences. In the past, I fined journalists when I disagreed with them, but today, here you are. So okay… I’m just withdrawing. Happy New Year everyone and thank you! “. It’s said.
