ASSE is looking with interest towards Ligue 2 to strengthen its team this summer. Among the players who have caught the attention of the Greens’ recruitment unit, Zuriko Davitashvili is a name that has been checked off.
Zuriko Davitashvili pleases ASSE
It is no longer a secret to anyone, ASSE wants to strengthen massively this summer. Particularly in attack where the Greens only have Ibrahim Sissoko, Ibrahima Wadji and Mathieu Cafaro. If the Ghanaian Augustine Boakye is expected in the forez, ASSE will continue to look for other attackers. Revealed by 90Football, the Bordeaux player Zuriko Davitashvili is one of the players who interest ASSE. The entourage of the Georgian winger has even already been contacted several months ago. Loïc Perrin, Sporting Director of ASSE, even appeared with the player’s representatives in a photo taken at the restaurant last May.
Riera has no illusions
The Saint-Etienne leaders must now find an agreement with the Girondins. Far from simple given Bordeaux’s expectations. For now, they will have to wait until the end of the Euro. Eliminated against Spain in the round of 16, ASSE will be able to resume exchanges with a club that is in great need of liquidity before presenting itself before the DNCG.
As noted by our colleagues at Girondins4ever, the Spanish media outlet Marca interviewed the Bordeaux coach (before Spain – Georgia), Albert Riera. The latter notably discussed the Georgian’s situation:
“There is Zuriko Davitashvili, who is a very dynamic player, who can play any position up front. I don’t know what this match against Spain will be like, but with coach Willy Sagnol, I know they are waiting for us. Up front, with their Napoli player, they can be dangerous. With his teammate up front, they are very fast, they play the ball quickly, but I think that behind, they can have failures and that by bringing the ball up quickly, it can be the key to the match. Spain should not have any problems. Zuriko Davitashvili is a great player, I think they will take him away from us (in the summer transfer window) because he is highlighted during this Euro”.
