The assignment of AS Saint-Étienne by its former goalkeeper Stéphane Ruffier, who is contesting his dismissal for “serious misconduct”, will return to the industrial tribunal of Saint-Étienne on June 13.
The 35-year-old ex-keeper, dismissed in early January 2021 six months before the end of his contract, demands “financial compensation of between four and five million euros” from her former club, which judges her “astronomical”.
He ended his career
Stephane Ruffier wished to have a delay, which the labor court met Monday in a tie-breaking hearing granted him. The file will thus be studied before the industrial tribunal on June 13.
In addition to his salary arrears, the man who ended his career as a professional footballer after his dismissal is asking for compensation corresponding to a “loss of chance for his professional career” and to one “moral prejudice”.
