AS Saint-Etienne have perfectly prepared for their derby against OL next week by beating Strasbourg this Saturday evening at home. But the Forez club knows that next winter, recruits will be welcome to try to ensure maintenance as quickly as possible.
In Saint-Etienne, we have been blowing hot and cold since the new Ligue 1 season. Fans and observers of the Saint-Etienne club knew that this rise to the elite would be difficult to manage. But ASSE is fighting to find a place and save its skin at the end of the year. This Saturday evening, Saint-Etienne put in a solid match to beat Strasbourg at Geoffroy-Guichard. Something to reassure before next week's derby against OL. However, and regardless of the future result between the two teams, Saint-Etienne knows that reinforcement will be welcome next winter during the transfer market. Sainté is particularly looking for a new offensive player. And the lucky one could well play in Sweden.
AS Saint-Etienne is preparing a nice move on the transfer market
According to information from European Mailthe Greens recently contacted Taha Ali's entourage for a transfer in the coming weeks. The 26-year-old, who plays for Malmö, can occupy several positions in attack. A dynamic and technical winger, he could bring a real plus to the Saint-Etienne squad. The media adds that his club would ask for nearly 4 million euros to let go of the Swedish international, at the end of his contract in June 2026. An amount within the ropes of the new management of AS Saint-Etienne. Be careful of the competition, however, because Celtic are also in the game. And the Scots have the advantage of currently competing in the Champions League. We will therefore have to find the right arguments to snatch Taha Ali.
