True legend of French football, Robert Herbin, former mythical coach of the Greens, has been hospitalized in serious condition at the CHU de Saint-Etienne since Tuesday, we learned this evening The Parisian. The 81-year-old Sphinx does not suffer from Covid-19 but from heart and lung problems.
The 81-year-old man however wanted to leave the hospital as soon as he woke up, which the hospital staff forbade him, deeming his health still too fragile. A player between 1957 and 1972, he took over ASSE immediately after his sporting retirement and managed to take the club to the final of what was then called the Champions Club Cup (the ancestor of the League Champions) in 1976.
