The true secret of why they forced Gignac to leave Marseille and reach Tigres is revealed

Five years ago, André-Pierre Gignac came to Club Tigres. At that time, very few fans in Mexico knew the French attacker qualities, despite having a good step in the Ligue 1 with the Olympique Marseille.

They were completely unaware that he would be the player who would change the history of the club; However, much has been said about his departure from the French football and his arrival in Liga MX. His former teammate Rod Fanni, who currently plays for MLS 'Impact Montreal, revealed the reasons why he decided to leave football on the old continent.

Fanni stated that one of the main reasons that forced Giganc to leave the institution was the lack of commitment that the board had with the players, in addition to the financial problems of the team.

Those broken commitments were experienced by the coach Marcelo Bielsa, since when he signed his contract, he asked that no figure on the squad be sold, but the board did not respect the agreement. The coach at that time was Vincent Labrune who left a year later after the first Ligue 1 game of the 2015-16 season.
