The defender is looking forward to Thursday evening's first leg game against Bordeaux.
"It feels very good to be back home and stepping on a pitch here. I am looking forward to the game and my family will be here to support me. Girondins are a big club but we will do everything to make things difficult for them on the pitch. I would like us to take a good result into the second leg. Naturally I do know the Bordeaux squad and they have good players. I do not know any of them personally though. We played against Girondins many times when I was a youth player. I remember that they have a great academy. We like to play attacking football and score many goals and hope that we will be successful at the Bordeaux stadium" - commented 26 year old French player Loic Nego at Wednesday's press conference.
