Jérôme Boyer runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 30. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market14 Sep 2026

Jérôme Boyer wants more than Tours are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

Thomas Michel falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Loan watch14 Sep 2026

Édouard Charles has seen enough of RC Strasbourg

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Tours, and 0 appearances in 5 say he has earned the hearing.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Karl Madianga knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Tours, and both men came out saying it was fine.

The division's best last weekend was a Tours man

It is a small honour and it is not nothing: somebody watched every match in the division and decided that Jérôme Boyer was the best thing in any of them.

From our football correspondent Triumph

Market31 Aug 2026

Thomas Bernard hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Tours can pretend not to have heard.

Raymond Pierre runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 25. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Eyes on Thomas Michel again

The phone has started ringing about Thomas Michel again, and this time the name on the line is Forli. Tours are listening politely and promising nothing.

Market31 Aug 2026

The AC Ajaccio deal is off

Everything was agreed until it was not, and Philippe Arnaud reports back to Tours with a summer to forget. Neither club is saying who walked away from the table.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Tours

Alexandre Coeff was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match29 Aug 2026

Tours get the job done against Clermont Foot

A 2‑0 win over Clermont Foot, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

A masterclass from Jérôme Boyer

Marked 8.30 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Jérôme Boyer finally opens his account

He wheeled away like a man who had been carrying it for months, because he had. Tours have their signing off the mark and one press-conference question retired.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Tours pick somebody else ahead of Joseph Jacquet

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.
