Winner of Lorient Sunday afternoon at Geoffroy-Guichard (2-0), Saint-Etienne started his season in the best possible way.
Claude Puel took the decision to field against FC Lorient in a very young starting XI, notably depriving himself of Boudebouz, Khazri and Ruffier. Since the start of the season, the coach of the Greens has also put Loïs Diony aside. Real flop since his signing with the Greens from Dijon, the one who was loaned to Bristol City could finally leave the Cauldron. Indeed, according to information obtained by Spor24, Kayserispor are very close to snatching up the win and offering the 27-year-old forward.
It is a transfer of less than 2 ME that should be negotiated between the Turkish club and AS Saint-Etienne for the departure of the biggest transfer in the history of the Greens. In Forez, and while Claude Puel no longer counted on him, Loïs Diony was barred by competition from Jean-Philippe Krasso, Charles Abi but also from Romain Hamouma, versatile and able to evolve on the entire front of the attack as evidenced by his astonishing double scored against FC Lorient on Sunday afternoon (2-0). It remains to be seen whether ASSE will find ways out for Ryad Boudebouz, Wahbi Khazri, also announced close to two Turkish clubs, or even Stéphane Ruffier, also pushed out by Claude Puel. The Greens manager is not a fan of the high-paid 30-something and he didn’t take the gloves off to let them know …
