In an interview with Le Progrès, Puel swept aside the rumor with the back of his hand Balotelli, and takes stock of the arrival or not of a joker.
“Balotelli considered? Fake news. Sometimes there are messages going around to bring players up to date.” said Puel who then spoke about the arrival of a possible joker “A wild card? I’m not a take-for-take. If there is an opportunity that allows us to improve the team, we will not be deprived of it. We had a lot of players who weren’t in the capacity to bring to the team. And in the short term, it’s dangerous to go in an emergency. Niang, it was starting to last, and when it lasts, it’s never good. “ said the coach ofASSE.
