ASSE is experiencing a key moment in its season. Indeed, after a checkered start to the season on an accounting level, Olivier Dall’Oglio was thanked and dismissed from his role as first team coach. ASSE is therefore looking for a new coach for its flagship team.
Although the research seems to be refined, Laurent Huard has taken over as interim member of this group which will play one last meeting this Sunday in Saint-Étienne against Olympique de Marseille. A match counting for the French Cup.
ASSE carries out a workforce review
With the professional group, several youthful faces completed the squad for the training session. In fact, group N3, U19 and U17 have no meetings this weekend. Laurent Huard, who is normally director of the ASSE training center, is taking advantage of this interim period to include deserving young people. As a reminder, he had already been acting during the dismissal of Laurent Batlles. He had already led the first team in the Coupe de France against Nîmes (1-0 defeat). A match where the reserve team had been sent. A first for many young people of the time.
Again this weekend? The option cannot be ruled out even if the team lined up should show more certainty than against Nîmes last season with more confirmed players.
A new face appears
Many young players were present at today’s training. Besides Pedro, Fall, Miladinovic, all present in the group against Toulouse, Nzuzi, Sahraoui, Makhloufi, Agesilas, Ndiaye and Nguessan were in today’s session. The last, new professional, is a player born in 2008. He could be the big surprise of this weekend’s group.
Indeed, ASSE lacks offensive cartridges. Ibrahima Wadji is injured, Boakye is on his way back but could be preserved to avoid an absence against Reims on January 4. Only Cafaro returns to the group after serving his two-match suspension.
Is the premiere of Djylian Nguessan (portrait here), the youngster who is driving the counters crazy, for this weekend? Response Saturday evening to the group’s announcement!
