On the administrative level, the Saint-Etienne club has come under the Canadian flag after twenty years of two-headed presidency.

The rumors are rife, as they are during each transfer window, and currently the names of Abdelhamid, Moueffek, Abdelli are those that come up the most in the Saint-Etienne news.
