Alexandre Dujeux wants a striker this winter.

The winter transfer window should liven up a little for Angers Sco. It's an open secret: Alexandre Dujeux wants to recruit an attacker. More precisely, a scorer.
After the victory against Bobigny in the Coupe de France and before heading off for a few days of vacation, the Angevin coach spoke about the arrival of offensive reinforcement. “I think it could improve our team. We've done a lot of good things, but we need a guy experienced in Ligue 1 games. I'm happy with the group I have, I'm happy with what we were able to do with this group, but this little added value at the offensive level could be really very important for us in the second part of the season. “
Downsize and recruit
The call to his sports director Laurent Boissier was made. The latter is obviously aware, but will also have to make a transfer window in the direction of departures to make up for last summer. Loïs Diony is still at the club despite numerous requests, Adrien Hunou does not intend to take on the most lucrative contract in National 3, while Halid Sabanovic and Ousmane Camara are still there.
Other players could either go on loan or be asked to find a new destination. In the event of the arrival of a new number 9, Alexandre Dujeux could have difficulty managing Ibrahima Niane, Esteban Lepaul, Bamba Dieng and therefore the rookie.
27 or 28 outfield players in training
Since the start of the season, Alexandre Dujeux has therefore had to deal with a very well-stocked professional group. “Sometimes I have 27 or 28 outfield players in training. That’s a lot, a lot, a lot. It's difficult for a coach to make everyone happy when you have so many players, when you have almost two thirds who are not at the start of the matches.”
Degreasing before reinforcement? Everything will depend on Laurent Boissier's ability to exfiltrate the undesirables. “Boys who play a little less, if they could have playing time elsewhere, that would obviously be good for them too”, did not hide the Scoist coach.
