A strong candidate for the rise in Pro B, Angers ended the 2020-2021 season with a meager record of 12 wins for 14 defeats. What to push at the departure of Laurent Buffard, replaced by the former trainer of Cholet, Sylvain Delorme.
Houstani, Desespringalle and Tresnak will not extend
He will be able to start from scratch since only one player, winger Karim Gourari, is still under contract. After meeting the players and talking to them, the new coach has already made some decisions. He does not want to keep the leader Naïm Houstani who asks for more playing time than the coach can grant him, but also the 2-3 position Alexis Desespringalle and the American interior Kyle Tresnak. “We did not make them any proposal but these are purely sporting choices because humanly, all had values, and there was nothing to reproach them”, insisted Sylvain Delorme in West France.
The coach therefore has six other players at the end of their contract who could possibly re-sign with the EAB for next season. Many arrivals are expected.
