While Mathieu Cafaro is announced to be leaving ASSE, Eirik Horneland raised the case of the former Reims player at a press conference.
At the end of his contract, Mathieu Cafaro should not receive an offer to extend to ASSE and the winger did not play last weekend against Nantes (1-1). Eirik Horneland preferred the young Djylian N'Guessan, who is nevertheless a center forward, and Zuriko Davitashvili. Author of the equalizer against the Canaries, Augustine Boakye came into play, but not Cafaro. A signal that Horneland no longer counts on him?
“I’m glad to have it”
Brought to discuss the player's situation yesterday at a press conference, the Norwegian drowned the point a bit. “Mathieu Cafaro has good potential,” he explained. It’s a slightly different profile from Boakye and Davitashvili. He has this ability to make runs behind the defense. Even though he didn't play last week, I'm happy to have him and have several tools at my disposal. In his first match against Reims, he was very active, he gave us several opportunities. This is where we see that he is a really good player. Against Paris, it was more complicated but that's normal against an opponent of this caliber. » We will see this evening whether or not Cafaro will play at Auxerre, he who is in demand this winter by Caen, but who would not really want to join a club currently relegated to L2.
