Things are moving on the transfer side to AS Saint-Etienne. The transfer window closes its doors this Monday evening at midnight and by then, if we are to believe the Team, the Saint-Etienne leaders will have obtained the signature of Panagiotis Retsos from Bayer Leverkusen.

The 22-year-old central defender, also capable of playing on the sides, is a Greek international (5 caps). It would land in the form of a loan with an option to buy. Plagued by injuries for 3 seasons, Panagiotis Retsos had been bought 17.5 million euros from Olympiakos by Bayer Leverkusen in the summer of 2017. He never really won in the Bundesliga.

a salary agreement to be found

Also according to the team, the player would travel this Sunday evening to France and should sign this Monday but the leaders of the two clubs have yet to agree on the payment of the salary. The Greens could not offer him more than what Wesley Fofana touched. Or 75,000 euros per month.
