AS Saint-Etienne : Arrival of M’Baye Niang in Saint-Étienne | ASSE News

The soap opera M’Baye Niang continues. Despite the outstretched hand of his management, the Senegalese striker seems determined to leave Stade Rennes for ASSE. Last I heard, the 25-year-old has already put his bags down in Saint-Étienne.

Imminent signing of M’Baye Niang at ASSE?

For long weeks, the future of M’Baye Niang will have kept fans of Stade Rennes, OM and ASSE in suspense. Doubts about the future of the Senegalese center forward will (finally) be lifted in the coming hours. As announced Thursday night by Pierre Ménès, Niang will continue the season with ASSE. Close to the player, the famous consultant had announced his imminent arrival in Forez. “Niang will have his medical examination tomorrow morning in Saint-Étienne,” the journalist said on Twitter. According to the latest information from The team, everything is being put in place for an officialization of Niang among the Greens. The website of the sports daily even ensures that the Senegalese international (15 caps / 4 goals) arrived in Saint-Étienne on the night of Thursday to Friday.

An irrevocable decision for Niang

For the online media, there are only a few details to settle before the signing of M’Baye Niang. The Senegalese giant (1.88m) will be loaned to ASSE for the remainder of the season. The Greens are particularly committed to cover his salary during this period. The 25-year-old striker’s monthly salary is estimated at between 220,000 and 240,000 euros. While an announcement is long overdue for Saint-Etienne, it must be said that the Senegalese did not have the head to play in Rennes this season. This despite the latest concessions from Julien Stephan. Thursday night on RMC Sport, the Stade Rennes coach extended his hand to his foal again. The name of the latter is even among the SRFC players selected for the Champions League. But nothing helped, the native of Meulan prefers to go green in Forez for the rest of the season.
