The affair shakes all of French football. And she did not deliver her epilogue. If an investigation has been opened to find out who is telling the truth between Julien Fournier, former sports director of OGC Nice and Christophe Galtier, technician from the Riviera last season, on the subject of racist and Islamophobic accusations against the latter, other actors ask questions. Especially Thierry Henry. The 1998 world champion, star consultant for Prime Video, spoke on this sequence on Sunday evening.
“What concerns me is that we don’t hear anything on the other side,” he said. I am waiting for the people of Nice personally. Why don’t the people of Nice speak? I still felt people who gave me the impression of wanting to say things. The more the days progressed, the less certainty there was in the discourse. I know that there is an investigation, but all the same, in Nice, there is someone who must be able to speak and tell us more than the three lines of the press release. I know it happened between two people who are no longer at the club, but we are still talking about your club. »
To conclude on this Galtier affair, Henry expects progress and clear positions. “I saw people defending one of the parties, why does nobody defend anyone on the other side?, he adds, perplexed. I ask myself a lot of questions. I had the impression that the players wanted to talk. Can they talk? In Nice, someone must come and explain to us what happened. »
