“We focus on the present and above all the future”

“We have great respect for the past of AS Cannes football but we are not in nostalgia. We are focusing on the present and especially the future.” Anny Courtade does not detour. In an interview published on his club’s website, the president of AS Cannes displays the ambitions of a club resident of the elite of French football in the 90s. But now, it’s time for the future and a very specific objective for the formation of National 3.

“We know that football is not an exact science and we have to show a certain humility. But our will is to do everything in our power to ensure that the first team goes as high as possible and achieves this first place synonymous with accession, she announces. This championship with only one accession is difficult and sometimes unfair! The club has undergone a lot of changes in recent seasons and the management team has chosen to work in continuity and sustainability by reinforcing Jean-Noël Cabezas and his assistant Derek Descamps in their post “.

Rely on training

For this, Anny Courtade wishes to rely on the Cannes training. “Our club remains a benchmark for the quality of its training and we are determined to rely even more on this asset in the coming years,” indicates the leader of the Riviera. The links between U19 Nationals, the reserve team and the pennant team will be strengthened. Our desire is to have a group of N3 made up in part of players trained at the club in order to establish our identity and give an extra soul to the team.In fact, starting this season, almost ten players trained in the club will be part of group N3 “.

A point which reinforces the guideline for the next financial year for AS Cannes. “We set out with a view to retaining the players who gave satisfaction during the 2019-2020 season and of course to strengthen the group through targeted recruitment, in particular offensively. Each element recruited must bring real sporting value and we are also Very attentive to the state of mind of the players recruited. The composition of our 2020-2021 squad will also be unveiled this week, once the agreements have been formalized, “concludes Anny Courtade.
