Zapping But! Football Club AS Saint-Etienne: Batlles, a good choice for the greens?
AS Saint-Etienne should record the arrival of Ibrahim Sadiq by the end of the transfer window tonight. The 22-year-old Ghanaian arrives from Sweden to be the counterpart of Kader Bamba, another winter reinforcement. The Greens had also thought of Marseillais Konrad De La Fuente, but he should be loaned to Hull City. But above all, they could have reactivated a very promising track, promised to Ligue 1.
This track is the one leading to Bilal Boutobba. The former OM player exploded this season with Niort, where he scored 9 goals and provided 2 assists in 19 Ligue 2 matches. Former great hope of the Marseille club, which he had left freely for Sevilla, Boutobba has resumed its progression after difficult years in Spain. Given what he has accomplished with the Chamois, he should leave L2 this summer. Too bad for ASSE…

to summarize
Strong man of the Chamois Niortais since the start of the season, the former Marseillais Bilal Boutobba (24 years old) should not make old bones in Deux-Sèvres. It’s about him on the floor above, in Ligue 1. And to think that he was in the sights of ASSE not long ago…
