Complicated transition from Ligue 2 to Ligue 1 for AS Saint-Etienne. While the takeover of ASSE by Kilmer Sports Venture foreshadowed good things for the Greens, we will have to wait for the Forez club to initially regain its place in the first part of the L1 ranking.
Play-off on the evening of the 11th day of the championship, ASSE is experiencing great difficulties this season. A situation which can be explained by a squad that is qualitatively a little too light, even if Zuriko Davitashvili is the very good surprise of this first part of the season.
Therefore, we should expect AS Saint-Etienne to recruit during the next transfer window. If Olivier Dall'Oglio is still in office by then, he would like to be able to recruit one player per line, and if possible players with experience, particularly in Ligue 1. And yet, the latest rumor does not go well in this sense.
According to local media Center Presse Aveyron, ASSE would be interested in Timothé Nkada. Author of a very good season under the colors of Rodez AF with whom he scored 7 goals for 3 assists, the 25-year-old striker trained at Stade Rennais, is closely watched by several Ligue 1 teams. Indeed, Nkada would be of particular interest to FC Nantes.
Under contract until 2027 at the RAF, Thimothé Nkada, who arrived last summer in Rodez from the Slovenian team FC Koper, should not be old for the current 12th in Ligue 2. However, not sure that this i.e. a relevant profile for a maintenance operation.
