Spotlight this Tuesday on the new strongman of the Girondins: Josuha Guilavogui. Indeed, beyond his goal this weekend in Clermont (1-1), the midfielder is already becoming the new boss of this team. Already, because as a reminder, he arrived only a few weeks ago in Bordeaux. Josuha Guilavogui was one of the club’s winter signings.
In four games he has already shown more than a Fransergio in six months. The former France international does not disappoint either on or off the pitch. First of all, he gave a new physical dimension to the Girondins, like his headed goal or his five tackles in Auvergne. With Junior Onana, he forms a very solid recovery duo.
But it is above all his leadership that is good for this team because that is exactly what he has been scoring for the Girondins since the start of the season. We were looking for the frameworks between an often injured Koscielny and a less influential Costil. With Josuha Guilavogui, the club has really found a new boss. From his first speech on his arrival, we felt this leadership side with a calm, sensible and strong speech. It must be said that the midfielder has already experienced this role at Wolfsburg in the past. Very naturally, David Guion, the new coach, gave him the armband. It was obvious. A responsibility that he takes to heart today through words but also actions by setting an example in recent weeks.
