Kevin Gameiro He has regained his best level. The Frenchman left Valencia tired, without illusions, but he has recovered it close to home. At Strasbourghas more goals (5) so far in 2022 than any other ‘Le Championnat’ player and that has brought him back to a smile.
The man of the 2019 Cup semifinals, a goal in Seville against Betis and an assist in Valencia for Rodrigo to sentence the pass to the final, left the club looking to meet again. And he has. In an interview with L`Equipe, the striker talks about the moment he decided to return to France. “I had good offers. If I had wanted more, I could have had it.” I wanted to recover the passion that I lost in my last season in Valencia, the injuries and the lack of public weighed on me. I needed to get back to my roots.”
a cup hero
Gameiro became in 2019 one of the men of the Cup. His participation in the tournament was brilliant and he closed it by scoring in the final against Barcelona in a game that was difficult to forget. Without a doubt, he was a determining player in the key matches of that title that the team, which Bordals now manages, wants to repeat this season.
