The ASSE is on the market and the structure mandated to receive and select the best applications has still not delivered its verdict. In the meantime, we learn that Didier Quillot is trying again to acquire the Loire club, after the rejection of its application in Bordeaux.
ASSE: Quillot reposition itself for AS Saint-Étienne
Unlike ASSE, which is still on the market, Bordeaux has found a buyer in the person of Gerard Lopez, former owner of LOSC. Didier Quillot, candidate for the resumption of the Girondins, saw his file rejected. But after this failure, the former executive director general of the LFP took a position on the Stéphanois case, according to information from Mohamed Toubache-TER. Indeed, Didier Quillot returns to the ranks for AS Saint-Étienne, because he had already expressed his interest before applying for Bordeaux.
“After his bitter failure in Bordeaux, now Didier Quillot, in a gesture of despair, has just approached Bernard Caïazzo … to discuss the takeover of ASSE”, informed theInsider, while indicating that the ex-GM of the Professional Football League “simply did not have the funds / financial guarantees” to buy the club.
Caíazzo reluctant to sell Sainté?
As a reminder, the CEO of Sainté, Roland Romeyer, indicated last May that we will know a little more about the sale of his club from July 1, 2021. Unlike his partner, Bernard Caïazzo, president of the Supervisory Board of the Greens, would be reluctant in the sale file, thus delaying the process of sale of ASSE, according to the indiscretions of the source.
