ASSE is undergoing an important renewal of its summer staff, with several key players starting to look for new opportunities. Niels Nkounkou, for example, could join the PSV Eindhoven in Eredivisie after a short but notable passage to the ASSE, where he scored 20 games and scored 6 goals. His European talent and his experience in the Champions League could seduce the Dutch club, which is looking to strengthen its team for next season. At the same time, Alexis Guendouzi, already known for his passages to the USM Algiers and the CR Belouizdad, signed a two-season contract with the MC Algiers in Ligue 1 Algerian, joining an ambitious project after a passage in Iran.
In defense, Paul Bernardi, goaltender who arrived on loan at ASSE during winter mercato 2022, could become a Green opponent this season. Originally recruited to bring stability to a team in difficulty, he played 17 games with ASSE, alternating encouraging performances and more delicate moments. Despite his investment, his passage was not enough to avoid relegation to League 2. After his loan, he returned to Angers SCO before joining the Yverdon Sport in Switzerland in January 2024, where he regained a form of serenity and played 181 Ligue 1 games.
Currently looking for a new goaltender after the departure of Rรฉgis Gurtner, the Amiens club would be interested in Paul Bernardi, whose contract with the Yverdon Sport runs until 2026. This possible signature could open an exit door for the former international French hope, which has experienced difficult times after relegations with AS Saint-รtienne and Yverdon Sport. His journey, marked by untapped potential and disillusionment, could lead him to join a French club in search of an experienced guard.
