To hope to stay in Ligue 1, the leaders of AS Saint-Etienne really have no other choice but to strengthen a workforce that is showing its limits. And the end of the transfer window should be crazy.
ASSE is dying in Ligue 1 and the championship days pass without the slightest ray of sunshine appearing above Geoffroy-Guichard. A point in the derby would have been considered an excellent result for the team now coached by Pascal Dupraz, but OL managed to deprive their eternal rival of this small pleasure. Stuck in last place, the Greens are aware that we must not waste any more time on the way, the gap having not yet widened irremediably with the roadblocker, and even 17th place, synonymous with maintenance. However, Pascal Dupraz, who recorded his third defeat in three Ligue 1 games, does not want to sell a dream to the Green People and he confided it after the defeat against OL, if Roland Romeyer and Bernard Caïazzo want it. maintenance, they must give it the means to further strengthen its workforce. And a priori it will be.
ASSE can save itself in Ligue 1 by recruiting in the transfer window
Green & proud 💚

Bernard Lions announces that the arrival of Robert Beric, free since leaving the Chicago Fire, is on the right track, even though this rumor had been swept away a few days ago. The Slovenian striker recently renewed the dialogue with Roland Romeyer in order to discuss the conditions for a probable comeback in the Cauldron, where he remained one of the darlings of the Saint-Etienne supporters. But the arrival of Beric would not be the only one, because the latter would only be there to play the role of a luxury replacement. The journalist from L’Equipe specifies that AS Saint-Etienne has Jean-Philippe Mateta, the Crystal Palace striker, as their number one target. And if that could not be done, then ASSE could turn to Serhou Guirassy or Vedat Muriqi. Similarly on the defensive side, the leaders of Saint-Etienne are working on the return to France of Marcel Tisserand, the defender of Fenerbahçe, a player whom Pascal Dupraz knows well since he had him under his orders in Toulouse.
