ASSE has had a week of events, marked by important sporting issues and organizational changes. At the sporting level, the first team won a crucial match against Reims (3-2), with an exceptional performance by Lucas Staasins, author of a double, and Augustine Boakye, who shone with his intelligence and vision of the game. This victory allowed ASSE to confirm its leader status in Ligue 2 and to maintain its invincibility after six days. The ASSE reserve also won its National 3 game against Auxerre (1-0), despite a difficult first half and accumulated injuries. The team demonstrated resilience and combativity to achieve this success.

In addition to sporting events, ASSE announced the arrival of a new Deputy Director General in charge of Brand, Marketing and Communication. Cédri Chambaz, former marketing director of Apple, joined the club to strengthen the image of ASSE and contribute to its development. This nomination is a testament to the club’s ambition to project itself towards the future and to enhance its heritage. In addition, ASSE announced the departure of David Tivey, his physical preparer, to join the Brøndby IF in Denmark. This decision marks a halt in the club’s strategy, which originally planned to retain it in the long term to develop the technical staff.

Finally, the week was marked by discussions about the future of some young players. Paul Eymard, a midfielder trained at the club, could engage professionally with ASSE, after being courted by European clubs such as Manchester United and Inter Milan. His situation recalls that of Noa Raveyre, who left at AC Milan before returning to Saint-Étienne. In addition, ASSE was able to interact with Arnaud Nordin, a player trained at the club, who spoke of his ties with the Forez and the club’s ambitions for the current season. These highlights the importance of training and developing young talent for the future of ASSE.
