“We make huge tables, our children live together in a fabulous landscape. Children are kings. My life is extraordinary, it would have been crazy to reject what I live”
– Florian Thauvin.
He also talked about his day-to-day with the San Nicolás de los Garza group.
“At the end of training, in our stadium right next to the pitch, we have barbecues. Our children sometimes come with us. They have fun with each other on the other side of the field. There is a professional side with an amateur spirit in the sociable sense of the word. term. The mentality is different from the locker room I’ve been in before,” he shared.
In the same way, the skilled winger wants to change the perception of the French with Mexico, because more than an “exotic” championship, he considers it the sixth in the world, only behind the top 5 of the best leagues in Europe.
“I would also like to change the way the French look at Mexico, it drives me crazy when I hear that we ‘lost’ in Mexico, that it is an ‘exotic’ championship, it is a lack of culture and respect. Liga MX is the sixth world championship behind the European Big 5. In Tigres there are boys who have played for Villarreal, FC Porto, Sevilla FC. There are Mexican, Argentine, Brazilian and French internationals. We have a great team”, he assured.
