Revelation of the last edition of Coupe de France with Épinal, Jean-Philippe Krasso is about to engage with Saint-Etienne. The Lorient-trained Spinalian striker caught Claude Puel’s eye in the quarter-final between the Greens and the National 2 team. The 22-year-old center-forward had reduced the score against Stéphanois ( 2-1).
Double against Lille
The former Schiltigheim player also scored twice in the previous round against Lille (2-1) for a total of four goals in five French Cup matches. Nancy was also on the ranks to recruit him but the Greens went faster. Claude Puel believes in his potential and wants to try a “coup” with this striker who is at the end of the federal contract with the Vosges club on June 30.
In lack of liquidity, ASSE will have nothing to pay. The Greens had already recruited the right back Yvan Maçon in Dunkirk (National) in the winter transfer window until June 2023. They hope to do the same with Jean-Philippe Krasso.
