At 7:30, at the training ground. The return to training after the summer break had arrived for Les Aiglons. There is generally a relaxed feeling that fills the air on the first day back. Monday certainly didn’t buck the trend. With a number of young faces and without a couple of experienced first team players, Les Aiglons met up to kick off their pre-season together for the 2019-20 campaign. 

With a temperature of around 30 degrees, they arrived at Le Gym’s home at 7:30. They headed to the dressing rooms, pulled on their new training kits, then listened attentively to the words of Patrick Vieira: “I want to work with players who have the OGC Nice mentality, the spirit of the club. Our objective: to be ready for 10 August.”
