Certainly, he's fondly thought of at several clubs and revealed how heart-breaking it was when he left Charlton during the January window of the 2013/14 season.

The Verdict

Kermorgant was technically gifted and featured at a good level for the likes of Charlton, Reading and Bournemouth.

He was a regular threat to EFL defences during his career and his ability and commitment in the final third made him a hit wherever he went.

He was clearly disappointed when the time came for him to leave Charlton, but sometimes these things happen in a player's career.

It's evident he still has a special place in his heart for the men from the Valley, though, and that will always be respected by fans of the club who will have been pleased to see this message.
