ASSE has seen its transfer window take off in recent days. Yunis Abdelhamid will sign in the coming days and the arrival of Ben Old is almost complete for after the Olympic Games. A third player should join Forez and is almost a done deal.
A Ghanaian close to ASSE?
This is a rumor that leaked last night via the very serious Twitter account @Don7mitchell. Augustine Boakye would be very close to becoming a new Saint-Etienne player, even adding that a medical visit would be scheduled for this Wednesday. Information that was quickly confirmed by the French press.
Indeed, according to information from Footmercato: “Unless there is a change of situation, Augustine Boakye will soon sign with the Forez club. The 23-year-old Ghanaian midfielder plays for the Austrian club Wolfsberger AC. The deal should be concluded for around €4 million plus bonuses. The player himself has already agreed with the Greens.” The journalist Santi Aouna who gave the information added that the Greens want to find a definitive agreement tomorrow on this issue!
