After its relegation, AS Saint-Etienne saw its workforce shrink rapidly. Many players were out of contract in June 2022. Where are they today?
Arnaud Nordin
This is the player who found a club the fastest. The end of the championship was not over that he had already signed up with Montpellier. Perfectly in his right, the winger trained at the club will wear number 7 in the Paillade.
Wahbi Khazri
Like Nordin, the former captain of the Greens has signed up with the MHSC. He will wear the number 99 and will continue his career in Ligue 1. He will face France at the next World Cup which will take place at the end of the year.
Paul Bernardoni
Back home, Paul Bernardoni is once again in the Angevin goals. In competition with Yahia Fofana who landed from Le Havre, he will have to win to remain the number 1 goalkeeper of SCO Angers.
Stefan Bajic
After a stint at Pau in Ligue 2, he will not meet the Greens this season. The 19-year-old doorman has signed up with English club Bristol. A new stage in the career of Bajic who will try to pass a stage.

TimothΓ©e Kolodziejczak
At 29, the former defender of the Greens must find a new sporting project. His performances last season should not help him. He is currently training in Mexico. It would not be surprising to see him try a new adventure in this country he appreciates.
Miguel Trauco
The Peruvian side is also struggling to find a new club. If the interest of Besiktas has been mentioned several times, he remains without a contract to date. He is currently training in Peru to keep fit. It will be essential for him to find a new challenge if he wishes to keep his place in the national team. If its priority seemed to continue in Europe, the South American option could be considered.
Eliaquim Mangala
Landed in the drill in January, he did not hide his ambitions. He will not have succeeded in the maintenance operation for which he was recruited. Since then, very little information has circulated about him. A time mentioned on the side of Turkey, its future remains uncertain. However, he assured that he did not want to end his career at only 31 years old.
Mr. Sacko
Revelation of the second half of the season for the Greens, his knee injury was decisive in the descent into hell of AS Saint-Etienne. Loaned by the Portuguese club Guimaraes, he did not drag to quickly return to France. He also signed up with Montpellier.

Assane Diousse
Confined to a substitute role, he never won in five seasons in the Saint-Etienne jersey. The one presented as the ideal partner managed to find a club this summer. He joined the Cretan OFI team. He has since participated in preparation matches.

Ryad Boudebouz
The Algerian playmaker ended his time in Green badly. With an unfortunate missed penalty synonymous with relegation for ASSE. The 32-year-old is currently training with a view to finding a club. If it has a few keys, nothing is complete to date.
Bilal Benkhedim
Announced as one of the nuggets of the generation that won the Gambardella, the young playmaker finds himself without a contract. He too is currently training alone with the hope of quickly finding a new challenge to relaunch his young career.
Sako bakery
If endearing, Baky’s return was not a success. The story was good but the level seemed too high for the winger. According to his Instagram stories, the player continues to talk and would not be closed to the idea of ββββfinding a new club at 34 years old.
Sada Thioub
Arrived last winter, the Senegalese alternated the good and the less good. Aligned in a role of piston that he discovered, the experience was not always easy for him. Back in Angers, he did well during the summer preparation and could scratch playing time in Ligue 1 this season.
Enzo Crivelli
Too long injured, the pivot could only bring his qualities 6 times. A frustrating passage where Crivelli’s rage could have been invaluable. Back to his Turkish club Basaksehir. Scorer in friendly, he will try to revive. A departure cannot be ruled out by the end of the transfer window.
Lamine Ghezali
The young winger of the Greens will not have been extended by the management. A fairly logical decision given the low playing time he had in the drill. Free of any contract, he plays today with the selection of the UNFP. He finds Mickael Panos, an ex green, also looking for a new adventure. Good luck to them !
