As Roland Romeyer indicated a few weeks ago, AS Saint-Etienne aims to reduce its budget and payroll significantly and to bet on young players with high potential for the coming seasons. With this in mind, Claude Puel has drawn up a blacklist, composed of undesirable people who are also the biggest salaries of the club: M’Vila, Boudebouz, Khazri, Ruffier.

“We are not here to chase players”

A management considered quite strict, especially with the Ruffier affair, but whose main interested party, Claude Puel, defends himself with beIN Sports. “I take responsibility knowing that some have discussions with other clubs and that at some point you have to make decisions, on the subject of tightening the group, to respect, always. Even if not not obvious, I’m here for that, confides the technician. I have to be frank with the players and we will see what will happen. But these are not players put aside. We are not here to chase the players. They are under contract and we respect them “he said.
