Leaving ASSE was a “hard blow” for Mathieu Debuchy
Mathieu Debuchy continues: “Weeks passed, I still didn’t have this appointment and I didn’t want to go see the coach to ask him for the interview. The interview was finally done before the last home game and before going into the office, I understood. The coach told me in front, straight in the eye. It was a hard blow for me because I saw myself finishing my career in Saint-Étienne. I had a lot of fun, I gave the maximum for this club. It went well for me, I performed well and then I had a good relationship with the supporters. It hurt me to leave this club.”.
