Siaka Bakayoko said last week that he was very grateful to Omar Daf for all the opportunities he has had since the start of the season. The young central defender of theAmiens SC (9 matches a Ligue 22 matches in the Coupe de France) risks being used even more in matches by his technician in the weeks to come, due to a looming transfer!

Indeed, as previously announced by L'Équipe, a competitor for the position named Mamadou Fofana is going to pack his bags to leave for the other side of the Atlantic. The Malian international with 146 Ligue 2 matches, who has not missed a single championship match since February 2024 and who starts as much as possible, has already signed a three-season contract with the New England Revolution (MLS), based in Foxborough, and recorded his departure from the Picardy club! The transfer of the 26-year-old player will bring in around €1.7 million for the Amiens, but will inevitably leave a void in a hinge where he had an essential role. Fofana will perhaps still be able to play three matches against Grenoble, Amiens and Thaon since his departure is only scheduled for January 2025. We will quickly know more about the situation.
