AS Saint-Etienne : Mercato: bad news in the Mangala file! | ASSE News

Zapping Goal! soccer club ASSE: Laurent Hess’s editorial on the management of hope Bilal Benkhedim

Where is the Eliaquim Mangala file at ASSE really? According to The Team of the Day, the central defender boarded a plane yesterday from Miami airport. If all goes as planned, the 30-year-old hitchhiker will arrive in Saint-Étienne during the day. Except that a grain of sand could come to stop this beautiful dynamic.

According to RMC Sport, ASSE has not yet reached a full agreement for the arrival of the former Manchester City player, but negotiations are advanced. A solution is still hoped for during the day since the person concerned is in France – but not in Saint Etienne for the moment – pending the outcome of the negotiations.

The big blow could ultimately come from the interest of another European club, which would be in parallel negotiations but much less advanced than the Greens. As a reminder, ASSE hopes to be able to field Mangala from the derby against OL on Friday, at the start of the 22nd day of Ligue 1 (9 p.m.).

to summarize

ASSE’s winter recruitment could begin to take shape with the announced arrival of Eliaquim Mangala (30) on Tuesday. Unfortunately, things don’t quite go as planned with this latest information.
