José Fonte (defender and captain of Lille but suspended during)
: “It's difficult to realize, to understand what we did. We will have to wait until tomorrow (Monday) because it is really something incredible what we did. This is madness. The whole team was incredible, this victory is for everyone in Lille, for the supporters because football is nothing without supporters. We want to come back to Lille because we want to celebrate with them. Twelve months of sacrifices, of work ... We have shown that we are a real team. This title is almost at the same level as my title at Euro 2016 because the championship is very difficult. I want to take advantage and not think about my situation (he is free in June, editor's note), I feel very good in Lille so we'll see. Christophe Galtier is one of the best coaches I have worked with.He has this ability to be close to the players, to pay attention to the small details. "
