In search of winter recruits to strengthen a workforce considered insufficient, the VAFC could set its sights on a player at the end of his contract this winteras he did twice last season. The lucky one could be Bourama Fomba, 25-year-old defender.
A defense to renew
When Stéphane Mangione said, after the defeat at Le Mans, that “ the team shows its limits “, this also meant that the VAFC was going to need winter reinforcements in order to fight for the places it was hoping for. The first recruit of the winter could well be named Bourama Forma. According to information fromAfricafootVA is in discussions with the 25-year-old defender, end of contract on December 31.
Last season, the VAFC used the same procedure to attract Mathias Oyewusi and Flamarion, also at the end of their contract in December. The Malian player from FC Levadia, reigning Estonian champion, traveled across Eastern Europe in recent times (Georgia, Romania, Ukraine, Belarus) after his training in Mali. Estimated at 350 000 euros by the specialized site Transfermarkt, he could come to reinforce a back line still orphaned by Bakaye Dibassy, on the way back, and who has not necessarily given satisfaction since the start of the season.
