The 31-year-old from Montpellier had not participated in the Golden League matches in Denmark, against Norway and the host country.

He then confided to

L'Equipe

"The therapist spoke of depression, it must not turn into depression," said the winger or right back.

Gille “impatient” to find his captain

“Everything remains open with Valentin for that week, however, notes Guillaume Gille on the Federation website, about a rally which will begin on April 11.

We will calmly take stock at the beginning of the course in order to consider the rest.

I believe that the personal work that he has undertaken makes him progress;

I can't wait to see him back with us.
