Asked about this file after the defeat in a friendly match against Olympique de Marseille (1-2), Wednesday evening in Gueugnon, the Forézien technician denied en bloc the arrival of the Tunisian right side, free since his departure from Etoile Sportive of the Sahel.

“We don’t follow this player, I don’t know him and I don’t want to know him. Unfortunately, there is a lot of fake news during the transfer window. I regret that some people advertise on the back of the club ”, warned the Castres in comments relayed on the official website of the club.

Apart from the one-season extension for attacking midfielder Romain Hamouma, the Greens have not recruited a single player since the transfer window opened. On behalf of the 1st day of Ligue 1, Saint-Etienne will host FC Lorient on Sunday August 8 at 3 p.m.
