For the first time since this summer, Bernard Serin spoke about FC Metz news after the first part of the season. On the program: the current financial year without forgetting the winter transfer window, its succession or even the Saint-Symphorien stadium. Interview.
With the first half of the season over, it is time to take stock of FC Metz and its president, Bernard Serin. While his team is fourth in Ligue 2 BKT, three points behind the leader, FC Lorient, the signals are good even if the feeling of frustration is added to the overall feeling.
For this exchange, Bernard Serin examined certain horizons. Firstly that of this season on the second floor of French professional football, but also on his desire to return to Ligue 1 where the context, linked to the crisis in French football, is very heavy at the moment.
For this, the rest of the 2024/2025 adventure will involve the arrival of a potential attacker, in the form of a loan, while certain players should leave like Simon Elisor. In terms of the market value of his squad, one player already seems to be the object of covetousness: Sadibou Sané. Information to remember in French football in the midst of a crisis and which pushes FC Metz a little further away from the galaxy of European clubs.
Nevertheless, the club can boast of having the infrastructures of a major one, even if the Saint-Symphorien stadium sees its progress being written in slow motion. If the sequel seems predictable, it especially seems to be so with Bernard Serin whose succession is not on today's agenda. If the desire is to find a local, trustworthy buyer, the reality is quite different, even if we lean towards foreign buyers. Unless there is a future surprise.
