Under contract until 2023 with the Union Bordeaux-Bègles, Christophe Urios still does not know if he will be the manager of the Girondin club next year.

This is not a taboo subject,"
said the manager of UBB at a press conference on Tuesday
.
We talk about it regularly with Laurent Marti and it went really well.
I will make my decision at the end of the year.
Now is not the time.

Ranking Top 14
Under the leadership of the former manager of Castres, the UBB has experienced excellent results, materialized in particular by a leading position in the Top 14 in 2019-2020 before the interruption linked to Covid-19.
After seven days this season, the Bordelais, who will receive the promoted Perpignan this Saturday (3 p.m.), are dolphins of the Toulouse neighbors.
“
My agents are not working at the moment
,” Urios continues.
It's not that I don't want to commit or that I'm looking elsewhere.

Laurent Marti's confidence
The one who joined the UBB in 2019 after four years in Castres (2015-2019) knows that its president Laurent Marti is counting on him, the questions are more at the level of his personal motivation: "
Here, I need to know if I am able to be able to continue to advance the club. Am I able to progress? I need this. If I feel that I cannot move forward, I will do as in Castres. I didn't have a track behind but I felt that I was no longer the right person to move the club forward. ”
"I do not ask myself questions about my future today
", insists the one who intends to continue to train until 2030 before a possible reconversion: "
After, I will replace you, I will work in the media
".
