Why not a chocolate! Jullien’s farewell message to Toulouse fans

Christopher Jullien has said farewell to Toulouse fans with a cryptic message of ‘why not a chocolate!’

Google translate wasn’t required to work out the final line of his Instagram following his £7m move to Celtic.

Jullien certainly kept Celtic fans enthralled during the days living up to his transfer but now that he has joined the Scottish champions he took time out to share some thoughts with the fans he left behind in France.

Grandir… Je suis arrivé à Toulouse à la découverte de la Ligue 1, après plus d’une centaine de matchs pour ce club, je peux dire que j’ai grandi grâce au TFC @toulousefc ?????? Oui le contexte a été parfois difficile mais cela vous forge, l’adversité grandit ceux qu’elle n’abat pas… Je remercie le club, le staff, mes coach et tous ceux qui travaillent dans l’ombre pour leur confiance depuis le début. A tous mes coéquipiers avec qui j’ai partagé ces moments, Merci les gars vous êtes de vrais combattants.???? À vous les supporters, BIG UP, vous êtes des vrais! Vous aimez votre club et ça se voit, ça se ressent, Merci pour votre honnêteté. Merci à la #TeamVIF et tous mes proches, votre présence m’a été indispensable.???????? Un nouveau challenge se présente, mais je n’oublierais jamais la #ForzaViola. Je continuerai à apprécier le quart d’heure toulousain et pourquoi pas une chocolatine ???????????????????????????? #newchallenge #heretocreate

Celtic will play two matches against St Gallen on Tuesday with Jullien expected to play in the afternoon ‘reserve’ match with Neil Lennon wanting as many players as possible to get 90 minutes.

With the first competitive match in Satajevo a week after the St Gallen games attention is now turning to getting through eight qualifying ties to reach the group stage.

In his previous stint as Celtic boss Lennon had a 100% record of reaching the group stage of the Champions League, in the 2012/13 season Celtic picked up 10 points to reach the last 16 were they were knocked out by Juventus.
