While ASSE is fighting to stay in Ligue 1, the winter transfer window could play a role for the rest of the season. Despite several weeks of opening, no movement has yet been made official. But several names are circulating, starting with Irvin Cardona. The former Saint-Etienne striker is being mentioned for a return to Forez. But he is not the only player affected by the transfer window. A Premier League big name is interested in Mathis Amougou
A market on standby?
Currently 16th in the championship, ASSE occupies a play-off place. Under the orders of Eirik Horneland, the Greens display a new dynamic, with an attractive game which even stood out against PSG at the Parc des Princes. However, to secure their maintenance, reinforcements are hoped for at several positions.
In addition to Cardona, capable of playing on the entire attacking front, the club is also interested in Sadibou Sané, a promising Metz defender and one of the hopes of Ligue 2. Other names were mentioned in the middle on the ground, although the discussions have not yet been concluded. With these avenues, ASSE hopes to consolidate a workforce in search of stability to ensure its future among the elite.
