Seventeenth in Ligue 1, Saint-Etienne had a catastrophic season. Fortunately, the Greens were able to count on a boss-size Denis Bouanga.
Recruited from Nîmes for only 4.5 ME in July 2019, the Gabonese achieved a successful season with 12 goals and 5 assists in all competitions. Performances which obviously did not go unnoticed across Europe since this Tuesday, Denis Bouanga is plastered in the front page of the Andalusian press. And for good reason, the former left winger of FC Lorient is among the priorities of Betis Sevilla in the perspective of the next transfer window. And Nabil Fekir’s club wants to quickly join the action since an offer of 10 ME is currently being prepared to dislodge Denis Bouanga from ASSE according to Estadio Deportivo.
Strong man of Claude Puel in attack, the compatriot of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will not however be sold off as quickly by the Greens. And for good reason, the Andalusian media claims that the leaders of AS Saint-Etienne demand the tidy sum … of 20 ME to let go of Denis Bouanga. A price far too overvalued in the eyes of the leaders of Bétis Seville, who were clearly cooled by the demands of Saint Etienne. This position taken by Roland Romeyer and Bernard Caïazzo, however, has the merit of officially fixing the price of Denis Bouanga, in the event that some English clubs have the idea of recruiting him in the coming weeks. In the event of a departure at 20 ME, Denis Bouanga would then appear in the top 3 of the best-selling players by the Greens just behind William Saliba (Arsenal, 30 ME) and ahead of Kurt Zouma, sold to Chelsea for 15 ME in January 2014. Rest now to see what will be the position of the player, who may have been marked by this extremely delicate season in Forez, during which he may have felt like he was alone in attack…
