Santos got to wear the armband, while Wiley got his first start in Ligue 1 since late August.

"He was great. He constantly shows professionalism every day in his work, he constantly wants to improve and constantly trains at 100%," said the former Hull City boss Liam Resenoir when speaking to Get French Football News. 

"There were other players that had a worthy cause to be captain but I felt that Andrey was the right choice. 

“I felt that he didn't do the armband any disservice at all."
