AS Saint-Etienne : Neymar injured, ASSE gets angry | ASSE News

On Sunday afternoon, Neymar injured his ankle on the Saint-Etienne lawn and will be out for six to eight weeks.

A big blow for number 10 Paris Saint-Germain, who suffers from a very bad ankle sprain and for whom the year 2021 is already over. Since his stretcher outing in the Cauldron, threats have come to the attention of Yvann Maçon, in the duel with Neymar over the action of the Brazilian international’s injury. But all this does not make sense according to the Stéphanois coach Claude Puel, who wanted to defend his player at a press conference insofar as Neymar was injured on his reception and not on a direct fault on the part of the defender of Saint-Etienne.

“There is no controversy surrounding Neymar’s injury. The club wish him a good recovery and return to the pitch as quickly as possible. There is no reason to incriminate Mason on this fact of the game ” Saint-Etienne coach started before the trip to Brest on Wednesday at 7pm. Claude Puel also took advantage of the microphone extended by journalists to discuss the sale of the club, a hot topic for supporters. But we shouldn’t count on the Saint-Etienne coach to say too much. “The sale, we don’t follow that. We’re focused on ourselves … It’s a soap opera, we don’t have to consider that stuff. We put a distance in relation to that. We are not going to stop playing while waiting for a possible buyer and transfer window ” launched Claude Puel who, on the theme of the transfer window, will record the reinforcement of Joris Gnagnon. What solidify the Stéphane defense and help revive the Greens, currently 20th in Ligue 1.
