Evann Guessand has entered football history. Sport24.az reports that the Ivory Coast international and "Crystal Palace" striker is the first footballer to win a European cup with two different teams in the same season.
The 24-year-old forward played for "Aston Villa" in the UEFA Europa League in the first half of the season. He appeared in 7 matches in the tournament, scored 2 goals and contributed to his team's championship.
In January, Unai Emery's team loaned Guessand to "Crystal Palace" with a purchase option. The striker participated in 6 matches in the UEFA Conference League with the London representative and scored 1 goal. He also came on in the second half of the final match against Rayo Vallecano.
Thus, Guessand has gone down in history as the winner of both the Europa League and the Conference League in the same season.
It should be noted that UEFA presents 50 gold medals to the winner of each tournament. For this reason, Guessand owns a champion medal in both clubs.
