Clermont Foot: Belgian Maximiliano Caufriez arrives as central defender

Clermont Foot 63 had attacked its summer recruitment by the defense, with the signing of a new left side, Neto Borges, on Tuesday June 14, preceding by one day, that of a new goalkeeper, Mory Diaw.

Three days before the deadline of September 1, 11 p.m., he finishes it (in any case, it’s more than a tendency to listen to coach Pascal Gastien in recent weeks) in the same way, by completing the arrival of an additional central defender (sector where Caufriez joins Ogier and Wieteska, while Billong is still there): that of Maximiliano Caufriez (25 years old, 1.89 m).

The Belgian arrives on a season-long loan from Spartak Moscow.

4 matches in the Europa League with Spartak

The quest will have been long for coach Pascal Gastien and his staff who, with the departure of Cédric Hountondji on July 18 for Angers, had therefore been led to try to recruit a second major central defender, despite the arrival already registered at this post of Wieteska, also 25 years old, from Legia Warsaw.

A native of Mons, Maximiliano Caufriez, after having known the clubs of RSC Pâturages, Mons and RCS Anderlecht, finished his youth career at KS Beveren, a club with which, from the 2015-2016 season, he played his first 4 Jupiler Pro League matches (the Belgian Ligue 1, where he will ultimately accumulate 97 games in 6 seasons) before moving to Saint-Tronc in 2020.

After two seasons, Saint-Tronc will transfer him to Spartak, a club for which he has played 18 Premier Liga matches (Russian League 1), but also 4 in the Russian Cup (which he won) and 4 in the Europa League.

“I am very honored to join Clermont”, indicated, in a declaration, on the site of the club, the player, who also has 12 selections with Belgium, in U18, U19 and Espoirs.

“My goal was to find a club that really wanted me. The coach and the management had a very attractive speech. »

The Belgian is therefore preparing to discover a new competition: “Ligue 1 is a very exciting championship for me. It’s an all the more interesting challenge in a club like Clermont Foot 63, which has a sporting project and displays great values. Personally, I will always give the maximum on the pitch to help the club achieve the goals”.
