Bernard Caïazzo is the subject of intense criticism from supporters of AS Saint-Etienne who now reproach him for bringing foreign investors too discreetly into the capital of the Greens.
Although he currently spends most of his time on the Dubai side, Bernard Caïazzo is a matter of concern to ASSE supporters, who feel he is no longer really interested in their club. And a Twitter account, @VertsEnColere now makes revelations that will fuel the fire on Geoffroy-Guichard’s side. Before the ASSE-Nantes match, Wednesday, very critical banners against the leaders of Saint-Etienne, and in particular Bernard Caïazzo, appeared around the stadium, however behind closed doors, and this is not likely to calm down after the posting. new accusations by those responsible for this Twitter account against the co-president of AS Saint-Etienne. This time, we learn that Bernard Caïazzo has allowed a Singapore company to acquire a stake in the Greens. A company whose behavior in Africa poses serious humanitarian and ecological problems.
“ Since October 2020, Romeyer and Caiazzo are no longer the sole shareholders of ASSE GROUPE. Without anyone having been informed, a Singaporean rubber giant, unrelated to football, made a minority entry via Bernard Caiazzo (…) ASSE GROUPE, it was two shareholders: Caiazzo via Cesse Foot and Romeyer via Croissance Foot. In 2017, justice confiscated Adao Carvalho’s shares in Croissance Foot, leaving only the two presidents as shareholders.Since its creation, Caiazzo was the only man behind Cesse Foot: 62.9% on his own name and 37.1% via YANIS & CO, a company therefore he is the sole manager. But on October 24, 2020, another unexpected shareholder arrives after a capital increase. GMG GLOBAL LIMITED thus acquires 3,647 new shares in CESSE FOOT, or 9.17% of its capital. The company is therefore now a third full shareholder of ASSE GROUPE and indirectly holds 4.58% of its capital … At present, 25% of the indirect capital of ASSE GROUPE is therefore held by the State following a confiscation. justice and a little less than 5% by an Asian rubber firm … (…) Moreover, it is astonishing to note that GMG has no loan or distant link with football, nor even with sport in general. The company is a subsidiary of HalcyonAgri, involved in major environmental and humanitarian scandals in Africa “», Explains @VertsEnColere.
