AS Saint-Etienne : Mercato – ASSE: Claude Puel wants to hit hard this winter! | ASSE Live News

Foot – Mercato – ASSE

As ASSE’s last transfer window resulted in a number of departures that weakened the squad, Claude Puel looks forward to making up for it in the next transfer window in January.

The defensive play of Claude Puel was totally upset this summer. Yes Loïc Perrin retired after 17 years of loyal service, theASSE also lost its young nuggets Wesley fofana, gone to Leicester, and William Saliba, back to Arsenal. Claude Puel had however bet on the loan of the Greek defender, Panagiotis Retsos. But these many changes, coupled with the non-coming of M’Baye Niang, case management Ruffier and the difficulties of the Stéphane attack (penultimate in Ligue 1 with 10 goals scored) point to new arrivals in the winter transfer window.

A central defender, a left side and an attacker in priority

According to daily information The team, the recruitment priorities for the winter transfer window are all found for theASSE. The Greens should focus on finding a central defender, a left-back, and especially a central forward. This information would validate the interest of theASSE for Islam slimani, very little used on the side of Leicester. French international and left-back Gaël Clichy had already volunteered to join the Greens. No doubt theASSE will also explore other avenues before January 31.
