Union Saint-Gilloise will travel to Sporting Charleroi this Saturday evening. Probably without Lazare Amani, who would therefore not face his old colors. Important in the past, the midfielder has almost no say under the orders of Sébastien Pocognoli.
First loaned by Charleroi, then permanently acquired by Union Saint-Gilloise in the summer of 2022, Lazare Amani has long symbolized the success of a team with a friendly and fighting appearance.
During his first two seasons, the Ivorian midfielder was an important player in the Union squad, whether under the orders of Felice Mazzù or Alexander Blessin. But this year, his playing time has greatly decreased.
With Sébastien Pocognoli, Lazare Amani is nothing more than a replacement, who had been taken off the bench at the end of September, when the “Poco” sauce had not yet taken hold at Parc Duden, before returning to sit down two short months later. late. Lazare Amani has not left the bench since the end of November.

A very delicate situation, especially since the Ivorian international (7 caps), also played by AS Eupen, was not even included on the club’s European list at the start of the season.
At a press conference on Friday, Sébastien Pocognoli confirmed that Lazare Amani was looking for a new challenge. “If the right offer suits everyone, then he will be on his way,” said T1. A great opportunity, certainly, for many Pro League clubs. La Gantoise had also thought of him, before turning to Leandro Lopes.
