Stéphane Ruffier had already been decisive this season in Ligue 1, especially during the success (0-1) obtained in Caen on August 12.

It's a homecoming!
Temporary or permanent?
Here is all the question.
In any case, Stéphane Ruffier is back at Aviron Bayonnais Football Club a few days after his dismissal from AS Saint-Etienne.
Even more surprisingly, he does not join the National 3 club as a player but as an educator.
He will be responsible for "creating and then supervising the goalkeeper academy" of his first club.
Stéphane Ruffier indeed made his first parades within Rowing.
He even played there for more than ten years until the age of 16 before joining Monaco to continue his training, then ASSE.
In conflict with the Greens for many months, he saw his contract be broken by the Greens at the beginning of January while it ran until June 2021.
🔥 Aviron Bayonnais FC is pleased to announce that Stéphane Ruffier has joined our club as of today as an educator.
Its exclusive mission will be to create and then supervise an academy of goalkeepers.
A great opportunity for our club!
