He is one of the most important voices in Stéphanois’ transfer window. Valenciennes goalkeeper Gauthier Larsonneur is called up by AS Saint-Étienne. With no real No. 1 since the sacking of Stéphane Ruffier, Laurent Batlles’ side lack a satisfying goalkeeper. It is however one of the sinequanone conditions to run and get decent results.
A successful goalkeeper
He is one of the strong men of Valenciennes’ good start to the season. Currently 5th in the league, the Northern team got off to a very satisfying start. Jérémie Janot is doing an extraordinary job with his goalkeepers in the North. After Jérôme Prior, Lucas Chevallier, it is now Gauthier Larsonneur who performs. And ASSE noticed it!
While some progress had been made during the transfer window this summer, Gauthier Larsonneur would have had more guarantees in Valenciennes and had therefore opted for this project. ASSE had favored Étienne Green to whom the club had promised the number 1 suit when Paul Bernardoni arrived.
After 16 days, Larsonneur is unanimous in his club while ASSE continues to alternate between Matthieu Dreyer and Etienne Green who fail to make the expected copies.
The departure of Larsonneur, a subject from the locker room?
Asked by le11hf Valenciennes left-back Quentin Lecoeuche has given his opinion on the rumors of Gauthier Larsonneur being sent to Forez. He wouldn’t be happy to see his current teammate leave. “We are very happy that he is here with us and that his future is in his hands.”
Aware of the possible departure, he admits that it is a subject of the locker room even if he “i can’t say everything“. In any case, he will respect the decision, no matter what.”After that it will be his choice in the end. More than that doesn’t concern us, even if we would necessarily like to keep him because he is one of the best goalkeepers in the league. He is between the two clubs now that it is happening.”
The situation is likely to deliver its verdict quickly!
