Things have gone extremely fast for Lucas Stassin in recent years. He did very well at RSCA Futures, moved to KVC Westerlo and quickly earned a transfer to Saint-Étienne. The striker spoke to DAZN about this rapid development.
Anderlecht could not guarantee Lucas Stassin opportunities to play in the first team and the striker drew conclusions from this. So he moved to KVC Westerlo for 1.5 million euros, where he also did very well. Stassin attracted the attention of Saint-Étienne who paid 10 million euros, including 1.7 million euros for Anderlecht.
Happy Stassin in Saint-Etienne
Why did he opt for a quick departure? “For the history of the club. It's a big club in France. Plus, they had a really good project for me. They knew why they were looking for me, they really knew me because the research they had done was really impressive. That surprised me,” Stassin said.
“They compared me to Harry Kane. They showed me some incredible statistics. They told me my goal should be to get to the top. I quickly understood that the difference in level with the Jupiler Pro League was enormous. The high transfer fee? It makes me want to prove myself even more and show that I am worth this award,” said the striker.
Figures that hurt for Stassin
Stassin has played 12 matches and, with 1 goal and 4 assists in 541 minutes, he is on a good run. A goal or assist every 108.20 minutes. Stassin can already produce impressive numbers in his professional career.
At RSCA Futures, Anderlecht, Westerlo and Saint-Etienne, he played 79 duels, during which he scored 27 goals and provided 13 assists. Stassin's market value has also exploded. In two years, it went from 1 to 5 million euros. The future looks bright.
