The Kaunas Žalgiris # ŽalgirisOnAir website is approaching the fortieth inning, and the team’s midfielder Joffrey Lauvergne has visited the latest website.

Colones are launched this season

In episode 39, Rytis Kazlauskas, the host of the webcast, visited the conversation in English for almost an hour.

The conversation in the Žalgiris Arena studio began with a French pastime: books and history. Although Žalgiris does not read books in Lithuanian, he is quite familiar with the history of our country.

“I read a book in French about 1000 years of Lithuanian history. It all started practically from Mindaugas. There were a few pages about what had happened before, but then the conversation turned to all the princes and came closer to this day. It was really interesting. Since I arrived in Kaunas long before the start of the season, I toured Lithuania and visited Palanga, Nida, Trakai and Vilnius ”, the basketball player demonstrated his knowledge.

The interlocutor spent some of the best years of his career at the Partizan Club in Belgrade, where many young players were playing at the time, and are currently playing at the highest level. Lauvergne revealed interesting facts about the then team manager Duško Vujoševičius.

“He asked for the keys to the players’ houses to see if they were having fun or not going to the bars. I still think he was right, because it is very easy to lose one’s mind at a young age, ”said the athlete who extended his contract with Žalgiris.

Before arriving in Kaunas, the center knew a lot about the Lithuanian champion from his great friend Leo Westermann, but the Žalgiris club also fascinated the Frenchman with his achievements.

“Of course, I knew a lot about Leo, but I also always follow and am interested in those teams that reach a level that nobody expects. The last four, the playoffs, nobody expected that. Half the season has passed and I am very proud of our achievements, because many of us signed up and thought we would be at the bottom, and we are seventh, eighth, ninth or sixth. “
