Holder at the wing for the kick -off of the 6 nations tournament, here is what you do not know about the player.
He is the chief’s little surprise for the kick -off of the 6 nations tournament against Wales. With the package of Damian Penaud, Théo Attissogbe is propelled as a holder on the wing of the XV of France. It will be the 4th selection for those who had already replaced Bordeaux a few months ago against Japan during the fall tour before going out on injury (sprain of the internal side ligament that put it on the tile for 6 weeks ). Back for several weeks, the Palois logically resumed its place in the group of the XV of France.
Lands in the heart
Théo Attissogbe was born on November 19, 2004 in Périgueux, from a father of Togolese origin and started rugby in Peyrehorade in the Landes. It is therefore very logically that this “Southwest guy ” launched his professional career on the side of Pau. “Coming to Pau allowed me to stay in this corner, where I feel good, near the ocean and the mountain,” he explained at the time in a Documentary by Canal +. Under contract until 2027, he feels good. As soon as the opportunity arose to register in the long term, it was obvious. “
He did not only rugby
The young player of the XV of France began with judo until he was 12 before putting himself in rugby that he never gave up. However, he also practiced athletics, rowing but also balls and golf. His athletic qualities probably come from all the activities he has been able to practice from an early age.
U20 world champion
Théo Attissogbe is part of the sacred world champion generation U20 in 2023. He talks about this event like “The biggest sporting memory of his life “.
