After a particularly calm start to the winter transfer window, things are picking up on the ASSE side. As mentioned previously, the return of Irvin Cardona is now imminent, but the Greens do not intend to stop there. The recruitment unit is actively working to strengthen the squad, particularly in midfield, where young talent is attracting attention.
A transfer window that is getting carried away at ASSE
The dead calm that has reigned for three weeks in Forez seems to have given way to the beginnings of excitement. Irvin Cardona, currently on loan, is expected to terminate his contract in the coming days to officially join ASSE. The striker is expected to provide offensive solutions to a team looking for points.
Noé Lebreton in the viewfinder
At the same time, Loïc Tanzi informs us that the Saint-Etienne leaders have set their sights on Noé Lebreton, a promising young defensive midfielder from Stade Malherbe in Caen. Information that we are able to confirm to you. At only 20 years old, the player has established himself as a key element in the Norman midfield thanks to his activity, his technical finesse and his vision of the game. With already 52 Ligue 2 matches to his credit, this French U20 international could be an interesting recruit to strengthen the Greens' midfield.
According to our information, discussions have started between the two clubs. The situation promises to be complex since Caen, currently fighting to remain in Ligue 2, could hesitate to part with such a valuable player. Especially since the Normans have to deal with the absence of Yann M'Vila, injured in his adductors and unavailable for the clash against Ajaccio this weekend.
-An ASSE player to facilitate the deal?
To facilitate negotiations, ASSE could include one of its own players in the transaction. A path that is still premature, but which testifies to the determination of Saint-Etienne leaders to finalize this file. Noé Lebreton, under contract with Caen until June 2026, is a real opportunity for the Greens wishing to focus on youth and talent. A file all the more complicated as the player is closely followed by foreign teams, particularly in the Bundesliga.
The Saint-Etienne transfer window is finally launched. After weeks of silence, the Greens are taking action to strengthen themselves and give themselves a second wind in their quest to stay in Ligue 1. The next few days promise to be decisive.
