AS Saint-Etienne : ASSE, RC Lens – Mercato: a former Green has the rage against the Blood and Gold | ASSE News

The contemporary past of RC Lens is not the best in terms of management. During Hafif Mammadov’s stint at the helm of the Artesian club, the Sang et Ors experienced lean periods that put the brakes on their return to the top of the bill. This dirty period is now history … except for Landry N’Guémo.

Very close to joining RC Lens at the end of 2014, the Cameroonian medium was the victim of the ban on recruiting Blood and Gold in addition to not having agreed on the possible terms of transfer. Six years later, the man has not forgotten this sad episode in his career … which nevertheless allowed him to bounce back a month later at ASSE!

“I arrived in January 2015. The context was a bit special because I had just spent six months in Lens without being able to play, he recalled at Poteaux Carrés. The Sang et Ors had big financial problems at the time, we waited for a green light from the DNCG which never came. I had signed a contract with Lens but my contract was not approved. I trained but I couldn’t play, it was difficult to live with this situation! In December, I received a phone call from Saint-Etienne. It was a wonderful opportunity to bounce back and finally find some playing time, of course I jumped at the chance. Things went super fast. ASSE were looking to strengthen their midfield as Renaud Cohade was injured and was unavailable for several months. It warmed my heart that this club was interested in me. The Greens are the Greens! ”
