David Ginola: Footballers could not play rugby
DAVID GINOLA turned down the chance to sign for top French rugby club Stade Francais when he retired from football.
Ginola said: “A rugby player could play football because you can integrate some things into football. But for a footballer to play rugby, it’s a different education and rugby is such a tough game – it’s a fight. I would have been the target of most of the players, switching from football, and I would have been in the hospital every day!”
