Mill in goal, aside, Mahdi Camara is the player Claude Puel relies on the most.
Seventeen Ligue 1 days have been played, this 2020-21 season, Mahdi Camara fought them all. Better, with 1571 minutes to his credit, he is the second player most requested by coach Claude Puel, not far behind goalkeeper Jessy Moulin (1593 minutes). This shows how important the midfielder is to AS Saint-Etienne’s system and game. At 22, he is establishing himself as a pillar of the dressing room in Saint-Etienne, which just needs it in this first half of the year.
Centerpiece of the Greens, Mahdi Camara progresses on the transfer window
Mahdi Camara is a product of Saint-Etienne training, after the Martigues club in the south of France, where he was born and raised. Professional since 2018, he spent six months on loan, at Laval in the National, at the beginning of 2019. Today, he is the sentinel of his team and this role seems to fit him like a glove, evidenced by the evolution of its estimated value on the transfer market. Obviously, it explodes. Judged rather modestly at 3.5 million euros, by Transfermarkt. And perhaps more surely 10 to 15 million euros, from the International Center for the Study of Sport (CIES).
A long-term extension signed in the spring, with ASSE
Since signing his first contract with the pros, Mahdi Camara has been extended for the first time this past spring. And this, until the evening of June 30, 2024. With him, ASSE is quiet for a while, to rule out possible external maneuvers for his player. Which is around 20,000 euros gross monthly estimated about it, less bonuses. By dint of increasing volume, it would not be surprising to hear the name of the young man involved in the next transfer window. Until then, he and his comrades have to do their best to redress the sporting situation of the Saint-Etienne club. He will be suspended this Wednesday for the match against PSG.
