Several reassuring news before the reception of the Girondins

AS Saint-Etienne has just given up its hard-won place as runner-up to AJ Auxerre in favor of SCO Angers. While the clash against the Girondins de Bordeaux once again promises to be crucial in the race for the top 2 in Ligue 2, several returns are eagerly awaited within Olivier Dall’Oglio’s squad.

Without managing to win in Grenoble for this last meeting of the 32nd day of Ligue 2 (0-0), the Angevins moved back ahead of the Stéphanois in second place in the ranking. During the next day of the championship, SCO Angers will host Troyes, relegated, while AS Saint-Etienne will host the Girondins de Bordeaux. For this serious deadline which is looming, several reinforcements are inclined to return to the Saint-Etienne squad.

As for Yvann Maçon, his return is indeed planned for next weekend after his suspended match against AC Ajaccio.

Ibrahim Sissoko, having been unable to play the match against the Ajaccians after feeling discomfort in his calf, could also make his return against the Marine et Blanc. More information regarding his state of health will be communicated in the coming days.

As for Ibrahima Wadji, who has disappeared from the radar since February 3 against Dunkirk, his return has been widely discussed in recent weeks, but without success. On the occasion of this shock against the Girondins, the Senegalese center forward could be given a few minutes of playing time at the end of the match to get back into the rhythm of the competition. During the week, the Stéphanois staff will judge the ability, or not, of Ibrahima Wadji to return to the Geoffroy-Guichard pitch next weekend. Having returned to collective training last week, Ibrahima Wadji however has a good chance of making his return this Saturday…
