In the team that promoted him, he returned after 19 years Djibril Cisse!
The former center forward of Panathinaikos will be a member of its technical staff Auxerre and will take on a very unprecedented role for football, as he will be the forwards coach both of the first group and of the second. This authority is a frequent phenomenon in basketball and American football and is slowly being introduced to the “king of sports”.
Of course, Djibril Cisse is certainly one of the most suitable for this role, as he was noted for his executive acumen, counting 272 goals in 609 career appearances.
Auxerre’s announcement in detail:
“He’s back! 19 years after leaving to play for the legendary Liverpool, Djibril Cisse is coming home. The top scorer in Ligue 1 in 2002 and 2004 will intervene on a weekly basis with our forwards, working closely with Christophe Pelissier and his coaching staff.
The former centre-forward (90 goals in 169 games for AJA), who will begin his training to become a manager, will also provide valuable advice and share his experience with the young strikers in the second team. Back to what he knows how to do for one of the greatest players to emerge from Auxerre.
Welcome back home Jibril!”
