Timothy Kolodziejczak returns to the group ASSE against the Epinal, Thursday evening. He is one of the players summoned by Claude Puel for the quarterfinal of the French Cup. So, we wonder if the AS Saint-Etienne coach pardoned him for good.
Kolodziejczak in the ASSE group against the Épinal
Discarded from the ASSE group in recent weeks, Timothée Kolodziejczak is back. He was retained by Claude Puel for the transportation of Stéphanois to the Marcel-Picot Stadium in Nancy. TheAS Saint-Etienne faces indeed the SAS Épinal (National 2 club), in the Coupe de France, Thursday (9 p.m.). Timothée Kolodziejczak has not played in Ligue 1 since the match lost to Stade Rennais (2-1) on November 30, 2019.
The Greens’ coach criticized him for his lack of training involvement. The coach also pointed to the 28-year-old’s state of mind. The latter would not accept to play in a position other than central defense. However, Claude Puel prefers the pair Loïs Perrin – Wesley Fofana.

Indeed, Timothée Kolodziejczak missed the last 9 days of Ligue 1. He was nevertheless on the sidelines in Strasbourg (19th day) and against FC Nantes (20th day). It has therefore been almost two and a half months since the rear loaned to ASSE has not played in the league.
However, the native of Arras made two appearances in the French Cup against the FC Bastia-Borgo (3-0) and in the League Cup against PSG (1-6). It was respectively January 5 and 8, 2020. It is therefore not surprising to see it on the Sainté list in section.
Timothée Kolodziejczak back in grace?
But it is possible that Timothée Kolodziejczak is back in grace, because the Loire club has several injured. And his coach should not do without the old Lyonnais for a long time. Especially since ASSE (15th) is seriously threatened with relegation to the championship. Note that Romain Hamouma, Wahbi Khazri, Ryad Boudebouz and Zaydou Youssouf (in the process of being operated on) are absent.
