Franck Honorat: From step back at Gladbach to the Champions League-Ruhm!

Franck Honorat: From step back at Gladbach to the Champions League-Ruhm!

The change of the French wing player Franck Honorat from Stade Brest to Borussia Mönchengladbach ensures conversation! While he rocks the Champions League alongside his former teammates, Gladbach is fighting for recognition in the Bundesliga. Honorate clings to a painful shadow of his decision?

In the summer of 2023, Honorat took the chance to change and believed in a positive turn of his career. But that turned! Mönchengladbach, once the pride of the Bundesliga, flopped with a disappointing 14th place and was just away with the descent. However, Brest, once under the pressure of the relegation battle, marched directly into the Champions League and sensationally scored 61 points, a record result! A dramatic contrast to Honorate's hoped -for development!

of the Champions League-Sirtse: He regrets the change?

While Brest shines in international football and even collected seven points in the premier class, Honorat in Gladbach remains somewhat behind the expectations. In the interview, however, he is satisfied: "I don't sit in front of the television and think: Oh no, crap, but that annoys me now ... I'm more happy for my former colleagues in Brittany." Nevertheless, the constant comparison remains frustrating! Instead of shining at your side, Honorat is only a spectator of the ascent of his old club.

Despite everything, the 26-year-old raves about Gladbach: "The club lets me mature!", He explains with conviction. The pace, the direct style of play in the Bundesliga - this is his world! His 15 assists in just 41 competitive games - almost as many as in 109 missions for Brest - speak volumes about his adaptation. One question remains: Will he be able to weigh the upswing of his old team with his own triumph in Gladbach?
