Grace Geyoro, Paris Saint-Germain’s 27-year-old midfielder, is with the French national team for the current international break and spoke to the media about her situation at PSG. Last November, she was sidelined after criticizing her loss of captaincy, which was not explained by coach Fabrice Abriel, who arrived last summer, and did not hide her anger. This time, in a press conference, she was much calmer.
Geyoro “I’ve learned a lot”.
“It was a pretty tough time, being sidelined, but not the toughest ordeal of my career, because I know how to react, I have the experience that means I don’t beat myself up. I’ve learned a lot, and in a career there can be obstacles and challenges, but the question is how you’re going to use them to come back and react. It’s totally digested, it’s in the past. The most important thing is that everything’s back in order and I can flourish on the pitch.
PSG want both titles.
What’s your objective at the end of the season?
Our objective remains the same, to go and get that first place, with the play-offs. PSG are still close to Lyon. Our ambition is to keep the Coupe de France, and we want to taste it again”, comments relayed by L’Equipe.
It’s good to see that the page has been turned, even if we can envisage that the relationship between Abriel and Geyoro will never be excellent. At least it has been possible to get over the hurdle and find a way to work together. An excellent thing for the player, the coach and the team. The French international was able to make the most of her experience, and she gained even more on this event.
Now it’s time to look ahead with determination. The midfielder looks forward to an ambitious end to the season. PSG want to win, far from the disappointments (such as elimination in the preliminary round of the Champions League) or tensions of the year. And they can count on an in-form Geyoro to do just that.
