In great difficulty in the league, with only one victory over the last 16 matches, Saint-Etienne must strengthen this winter. In recent weeks, the Greens have been actively negotiating with Egyptian club Zamalek for the transfer of striker Mostafa Mohamed.
While everything seemed complete to welcome the 23-year-old striker, Zamalek had formalized via a statement the end of negotiations between all parties. But it looks like the situation has changed. At a press conference, Claude Puel said that negotiations were still ongoing. “The president wanted to stigmatize certain stakeholders who wanted to spoil relations. It was misinterpreted. But normalcy has reestablished itself between the two clubs. “ The track therefore remains always open for the leaders of Saint-Etienne who must strengthen themselves to raise the bar in the league.
