Noah prefers to Blue Bulls

Joakim Noah has chosen its priority, and this is not the France team. At least for now. The backbone of Chicago, where Vincent Collet had already made a cross for the World Cup in Turkey (August 28 to September 12) said this weekend that he would not "ruin everything" when it negotiates a reclamation contract with the Bulls.

Vincent Collet no longer believed he was right. Joakim Noah certainly does not join the France team for the World Championship in Turkey in late August, since it gives "priority to the Bulls. The pivot French still hoping to get an appreciation of his contract. "Sure, it's my goal. But I'm not too worried," he said this weekend in Chicago ESPN.

"I just came back from an ugly wound in the arch of the foot, and negotiate a contract that will allow me to be financially secure for a while. I can not spoil everything," said the interior lights. Pivot Bulls, however, reiterated his intention to compete in the Olympic Games in 2012 with the Blues.

Go to Lithuania?

By then, the El Tri will have another goal in mind, the Euro 2011 in Lithuania. A European Championship qualifier for the London Olympics and should again attract the best players in the France team, as Tony Parker and Ronny Turiaf. Joakim Noah does it take time to wear the jersey of selecting a fourth time, having never played in three friendly matches in 2009? "I want to be 100% next season, simply there to answer. With the Bulls, especially. With the Blues, eventually. We'll see, once again ...

Meanwhile, Vincent Collet has to do with, or rather without it, which does not scare him either. The national coach had already written off the coming of Joakim Noah last week: "Joakim said from the beginning, if he does not is because of his contract. We know from the beginning The situation has not changed. And for me, the Bulls are not going to sign a contract tomorrow. That's why, on my side, my team, it's there. It must resolve to turn the page . Anyway, that's what I did. I want the same speech since the beginning, that I was pessimistic. For me, it's a done deal. " For the player too, now.
