It’s official! According to reports from The Team, Maxime Poundjé has successfully extended his contract with Bordeaux. The promising Franco-Cameroonian defender, aged 20, has committed to an additional two years, tying him to the Girondins until 2017. Poundjé is seen as a key figure in the future of the Aquitaine club, and despite attracting interest during the summer, he has chosen to continue his journey with Bordeaux.
Initially expected to fill the shoes of Trémoulinas, Poundjé faced competition when the Girondins brought in Argentine defender Lucas Orban. However, Poundjé’s decision to stay in Gironde indicates his commitment to the club. With Bordeaux participating in multiple competitions, including Ligue 1, Europa League, and domestic cups, Poundjé’s services are anticipated to be valuable throughout the season.
