Introduction to Sagnol

- *

As one of the best right-backs in international football, Sagnol has won numerous honors. The player who was born in1March 8 1977 has won many championships in both clubs and national teams.

Sagnol made his debut in Saint Etienne. From 65438 to 0997, he came to Monaco, a French powerhouse, and began to make his mark in the French League, and helped Monaco win the French Cup. Willy sagnol, a French foreign aid introduced by Bayern Munich from Monaco in the 2006-07 season, is a promising defender. At present, it has established a main position in the defense line of Bayern Munich. His football career began in Monaco, and he made his mark in the French League in 1997/98 season. Last season, he helped Monaco win the Ligue 1 championship and added chips for it to enter the giant Bayern Munich.

Later, he was attracted by Bayern Munich and came to this Bundesliga giant for 7.7 million euros.

In Bayern's first season, Sagnol won the Champions League and the Bundesliga with the team, and he also became the absolute main force in the team. His accurate cross on the right has become an important weapon for Bayern's attack, and his defense is equally excellent. In the French national team, Sagnol's main position is not so stable. Gallas from Chelsea has been competing with Sagnol for the right-back position.

In recent seasons, it has been repeatedly reported that Sagnol will leave Bayern, but this excellent right-back is still in the camp of the Bundesliga boss. As for what will happen in the future, we can wait and see.

At the end of June, 5438 +2009 10, Sagnol retired due to long-term injury. Sagnor's announcement of retirement was not sudden. He revealed this idea in an interview with French TV 1 last June, 1 1, when he said, "This has been going on for too long, and the future is full of uncertainty. I never know when I can recover, maybe it's time to end it all. " During training in Dubai, Klinsmann also hinted that Sagnol might retire: "Now it seems that it is difficult for Sagnol to play again. He always feels pain. He is a very good player, which makes me very sorry. "

Rummenigge expressed regret for Sagnol's retirement. "Sagnol told me that his achilles tendon was still very painful and he had to end his career." Rummenigge said, "We sympathize with and understand his decision." Sagnol will also terminate his new contract with Bayern early to 20 10, and his appearances for Bayern in the Bundesliga will always be fixed at 184.

After retiring, Sagnol may return to France and become the sports manager of Monaco Club. At the beginning of this month, Monaco club expressed this intention to Sagnol, which may also be a factor that prompted Sagnol to decide to retire. Rummenigge is also optimistic about his future. "I believe that Sagnol has this ability and he will do better in the position of manager." Rummenigge said.

On February 2, 2009, Beijing time, Bayern player Sagnol held a press conference and announced his retirement.

French international and club veteran Sagnol decided to end his career. In an interview with Sü ddeutsche Zeitung, Bayern President rummenigge revealed: "In a meeting a few days ago, Sagnor said it was meaningless to continue. No matter how he trains, his ankle will always feel pain. "

Enduring the pain in his heart, Sagnol announced his decision to retire, but when he said goodbye to Bayern, he still smiled. Recall my own video in Bayern-throwing off three opponents at Allianz Stadium, sending a symbolic cross from the right, and even celebrating one or two goals crazily. He also heard the enthusiastic shout of "Willyyyyy" from die-hard fans in the south stand, which will never happen again.

Sagnol intends to stay in Munich until the end of this season, and then move to the south of France with his family. Hernes hopes that the club can hold a meaningful farewell ceremony for Sagnol and the champion in May: "We are confident to hold a grand celebration party at the end of May, which will be the most appropriate occasion to bid farewell to Sagnol at Allianz Stadium."

If Hernes's wish comes true, Allianz Stadium will shout "Willyyyyy" for the last time. Sagnol said, "I spent nine wonderful years in Bayern and had a special relationship with the fans. In the next few months, I will definitely go to Allianz Stadium often to watch the ball with the fans. " The affection between Bayern and Sagnol will not be weakened by his retirement. In his retirement statement, Sagnor said, "Sabena Street used to be my home. Now I have to go, but my heart is still here. "
