6 years later, Nobel Boungou-Colo is about to return to Beaublanc! Champion of France Pro B in 2011, winner of the 2012 Match of Champions and double champion of France with Limoges (2014 and 2015) in a major role, the former star winger of the CSP will return for the first time in the Limoges lair. Given his impact on the club’s recent history, the four-time All-Star could look forward to his reunion with the public. However, the Franco-Congolese winger expressed his concern to the People of the Center, fearing that the supporters, without admitting it too much, would remain focused on the end of his adventure where he had gone to showdown with the club. to go away.
“I don’t really want to come back. I’m a little apprehensive about this comeback. I don’t know how people will react. It’s been a long time since I left and there have been controversies in the past I know that some fans have not forgotten me, I still receive a few messages. Fred (Forte) would still have been there, I would know a little more what to expect but there. […] It would make me feel strange to be poorly received. I had Adrien (Moerman) on the phone during the week, he thinks everything will be fine but I don’t know. In any case, it works for me because it would hurt me if it didn’t go well. It would upset me. After so many years in this club and several titles, you don’t want to see people throw everything in the trash. In the end, I prefer not to expect anything so as not to be disappointed. »
