Since the announcement of Loïc Perrin’s sports retirement, late Thursday afternoon, tributes have multiplied on twitter.
First of all, it was the now ex-teammates of the emblematic defender of the Greens who reacted, like Denis Bouanga.

Political figures also salute the career of number 24, such as the former mayor of Saint-Étienne, Maurice Vincent.

The current mayor of Saint-Étienne, Gaël Perdriau, preferred to react on Facebook with a press release, which looks back on the defender’s career from FC Saint-Charles la Vigilante.
Finally, the basketball player and former NBA player, Alexis Ajinça, from Saint-Étienne, remembers having shared the same high school in sports studies as Loïc Perrin.
We were in the same high school in sports studies (but you were much older lol 😆) @ loicperrin_24
I admired your career at @ASSEofficiel during all these years, all those games where you made us vibrate. Thank you, Loïc, for being an example for all Saint-Etienne (es) 1/2 pic.twitter.com/fDLPaCMHOt– Alexis Ajinça (@ AjincaAlexis42) July 31, 2020
