While sportingly, with two home wins in two games, all is going well for Saint-Etienne, a major problem has arisen in recent days.
Already considered the boss of defense at only 19, Wesley Fofana has expressed the fierce desire to sign for Leicester this September. A salary multiplied several times, the prospect of discovering the Premier League, personal problems also with threats against his family, the young defender refused to play mercenary, recalling that ASSE would probably touch 30 ME in case of transfer. For Pierre Ménès, the choice to sign in Leicester stands, especially as the behavior of some supporters in Saint-Etienne once again harms their own club, as the consultant of Canal + sharply reminds us.
” Leicester is no small thing, but it is not Manchester United, Liverpool or Arsenal. But given his level, he is still guaranteed to have a real playing time. He doesn’t go on an adventure like some players do when they go abroad. And above all, it’s when I see the reaction from the supporters, if we can call these donkeys supporters, that it doesn’t work. Her little sister was threatened at school anyway, it goes a long way. He must have really wanted to stay, for sure, Fofana », Swayed a Pierre Ménès who does not carry the extreme behavior of certain Saint-Etienne supporters in his heart. It remains to be seen what will be the future of Fofana, starting this Saturday night and once again very convincing under the orders of Claude Puel who absolutely wants to keep him in September.
