Last week, Center Presse Aveyron mentioned an interest from ASSE and FC Nantes for Rodez striker, Timothée Nkada (25 years old) but is this really a possibility for this winter? We discuss it… and we get wet.
This is THE revelation of the moment in Ligue 2: arriving last summer to replace Killian Corredor who left for Darmstadt (German D2), Timothée Nkada (25 years old) quickly adapted to Rodez. Arriving from the Slovenian club FC Koper where he did not panic the scorers (11 goals in 46 appearances), the former player of Rennes, Reims, Aalborg and even Orléans quickly adapted to Ligue 2, registering 8 goals and delivering 3 assists in 13 appearances.
Second top scorer in Ligue 2 just one unit behind Pape Meïssa Ba (Grenoble), the native of Lille established himself as an affordable recruit for a poorly ranked Ligue 1 player at the same time as a nice potential added value for the RAF, which only spent a few tens of thousands of euros to bring it back to France and which can hope for a sale for a few million (2-3 M€).
ASSE doesn't need it, Nantes why not?
If ASSE – which follows all the good Ruthenian players – is cited, we do not think that the Greens will take action for an attacker of this profile this winter. Sainté not only has other priorities in terms of positions but he already has people to fill the center forward role (Stassin, Sissoko, Wadji). In his game, Timothée Nkada looks too much like Ibrahim Sissoko and Kilmer Sports Ventures, more attracted by prospects for trading, will not bet on a 25-year-old player who has just exploded.
As for FC Nantes, the file can however be on the table. Especially if Waldemar Kita's club manages to sell Mostafa Mohamed as hoped and/or Ignatius Ganago leaves. The Canaries do not have a plethora of center forwards and the big reinforcement of the summer, Matthis Abline, showed that he had difficulty being alone up front. A Nkada may be a credible option. To be continued.
