These are our colleagues from The Flash East who released the information this Monday, June 24. According to them, Antoine Sibierski would be very close to signing up for Troyes. At the very least, there would be discussions between Estac, relegated to the National, and the one who was supposed to train Berrichonne de Châteauroux for the next three seasons. According to Castelroussin leaders, in fact, an agreement had been reached for Sibierski to remain at the head of Berri in the event of validation by the DNCG. Funny agreement… With the passage before the French football police being set for this Wednesday, June 26, we thought that nothing was going to change until this fateful date. We were obviously wrong.
Estac already has a trainer…
However, a question hovers around this file because Estac already has a coach, David Guion, who arrived from Bordeaux in December 2023 and who should remain at Troyes despite relegation to the National. The coaching position is not vacant, Antoine Sibierski could therefore arrive at the Aube club as sports director, following the departure of François Vitali.
A lot of uncertainties to dispel, therefore, and nothing very reassuring on the Berrichonne side. The envisaged staff, Antoine Sibierski with Walid Aïchour as deputy, would thus be shattered, the latter having preferred to occupy a number 1 role in Bourges (National 2).
Two days before the DNCG
Two days before a decisive meeting at the DNCG, the Castelroussin leaders would undoubtedly have done without an additional thorn in the shoe. Indeed, they must already convince the body of their ability to honor the forecast budget for next season (around €3.5 million), while hoping that the DNCG validates the possibility of spreading over 24 to 36 month a debt estimated at more than €1.5 million, inherited from previous management. Even if the composition of the staff and the squad is important, it is the financial questions which dominate this match with incessant and worrying twists and turns.
