Between Olympique Lyonnais and AS Saint-Etienne, the rivalry has lasted and persisted for years. Despite this, Juninho, sporting director of Gones for over a year now, has been able to ignore it. This is what Loïc Perrin revealed on Monday on RMC Sport.
The 35-year-old defender, who recently announced his retirement, admitted that he was surprised to receive a message from former OL number 8 after his announcement. “I got a message from Juninho. It was surprising yes and no, because there is rivalry (between ASSE and OL). He knew how to distinguish between things. He sent a very nice message “. A nice gesture from Juninho.
