In an interview given in early April to YouTube channel “LA DA”, Dilane Bakwa, Guéla Doué and Ismaël Doukuré told the story of their famous “Hayke Hayke” celebration. A dance that is furious in the changing rooms, based on the title “Mnike” by Tyler ICU. At the Racing Club in Strasbourg, youth is synonymous with a state of mind rather than age. Dilane Bakwa stands out as the chief animator of the dressing room, a true catalyst of joy and cohesion, as valuable in moments of relaxation as in the field. With his accomplices Guéla Doué and Emanuel Emegha in particular, he helps improve the osmosis of the dressing room in the good mood. This osmosis is felt on the ground thanks to the young players coached by Liam Rosenior.
When asked about the origin of this dance that became famous, Dilane Bakwa explains: “Frankly I won’t know who started it first. It’s a celebration that we were already doing last year with Ema (Emanuel Emegha), and then I think it was Guéla Doué and I who did it again. Then when everyone arrived, everyone liked the music and everyone wanted to dance it. The cameraman also did his job well, showing a good time when everyone dances and laughs. "
His teammates do not fail to notice the overflowing energy of Dilane Bakwa in the locker room. Guéla Doué jokes even in the interview: “There are some who are agitated in the locker room (in speaking of Dilane), one should put a camera isolated on him for a “24h” with Dilane Bakwa. He’s the worst in the locker room with Ema!”
This collective emulation creates a positive atmosphere within the group, which is also reflected on social networks and in matches. The Racing Club in Strasbourg is currently competing for a place in Europe, thanks to its seven wins and three draws in the last ten matches. The next crucial match against Saint-Etienne (17th of L1) will take place at the Meinau.
