ASSE has returned to the elite of French football this season. In the middle of the transfer window, the club must be active in adjusting its workforce. A player who joined the club in 2018 is about to be given a new challenge.
Yanis Lhéry, born May 7, 2003 in Tremblay-en-France, is a promising young striker playing for AS Saint-Étienne. A versatile and talented player, he is progressing quickly in the French football landscape. He discovered football at FC Livry-Gargan, where he played from 2010 to 2015. He continued his apprenticeship at FC Montfermeil before joining the prestigious AS Saint-Étienne training center in 2018. This passage allows him to develop his technical and tactical qualities. At the same time, Yanis represents France in youth teams. With the U16s, he played six matches and scored one goal. He also had a selection with the U17s, confirming his potential on the international scene.
In 2020, he joined the ASSE reserve team, where he stood out with 14 goals in 34 matches. His efforts were rewarded on May 23, 2021, when he made his debut in Ligue 1 against Dijon. To get tougher, he was loaned in 2023-2024 to Progrès Niederkorn, a Luxembourg club, where he accumulated playing time with 11 matches played and one goal scored. Returning to Saint-Étienne in 2024, he is more truly part of the club’s project.
Direction Spain for Lhéry (ASSE)
According to exclusive information from Top Mercato: “Yanis Lhéry is in fact about to leave Forez. Aged 21 and at the end of his contract next June, the striker should sign a contract in the coming hours until June 2027 in favor of Alcorcon in the Spanish third division.”
Standing at 1.79 m tall, Yanis Lhéry is a fast and technical attacker, capable of playing both on the left wing and up front. His style of play, marked by his versatility and his sense of teamwork, makes him a player to follow closely.
At the start of 2025, he is playing at AS Saint-Étienne, where he aims to become a key part of the team and take new steps in his career.
