16th in Ligue 1, Saint-Etienne will have to fight until the end of the season to maintain their position. And to achieve this objective, the Saint-Etienne club intends to strengthen itself during the winter transfer window.
With two victories in the last five Ligue 1 matches, Saint-Etienne is not in crisis. The word would be too strong, but Olivier Dall'Oglio's team displays an irregularity which worries internally. The lack of maturity within the workforce is often pointed out and the results of ASSE are yo-yoing, which is not really a good thing when you are aiming for maintenance. The new owners from Saint-Etienne have a plan for several years in Saint-Etienne but to carry out their mission, maintenance is essential.
This is the reason why heavy investments are planned this winter in order to offer Olivier Dall'Oglio several recruits. According to information on the site Live Footthe ASSE staff is working on four reinforcements in January, enough to seriously strengthen the Saint-Etienne team. The entire right side of the Greens could be modified with a targeted full-back and winger. In addition, an attacking midfielder is desired by the Saint-Etienne board, who believe that Dall'Oglio does not have at his disposal a true creator, capable of being the maestro of the team and managing the highlights as well. and weak times.

In addition, a central defender could also be recruited by the Forézien club while in this sector of play, Mickaël Nadé is absent and could miss several weeks of competition, including at the start of 2025. Suffice to say that the menu of the winter transfer window is shaping up copious in Saint-Etienne, where we will now have to find clever moves to strengthen ourselves without breaking the bank either. Olivier Dall'Oglio especially hopes that ASSE will rely on experienced players, which is not at all Kilmer Sports' niche since the takeover of the club, with mainly very young recruits last summer.
