Laurent Batlles and his men returned to the lawns of the State on Monday. The opportunity to start a summer preparation before a season that promises to be rich in emotion.
AS Saint-Etienne has just started its summer preparation. The vast majority of players in the squad have put on their cleats.
A group where Jean-Philippe Krasso, Kader Bamba, Matéo Pavlovic, Jimmy Giraudon, Lenny Pintor or even Yvann Maçon no longer appear.
Yvan Neyou and Aboulaye Bakayoko on departure did not attend this first week of preparation either.
Laurent Batlles was able to lead a session which included a good number of young players from the training center.
Briançon, Fall, Lhéry, Cafaro, Wadji, Nadé, Gauthier, Rivera, Mouton, Amougou, Lobry, Cissé, Dreyer, Larsonneur, Green, Pétrot, Chambost, Moueffek, Fomba, Dieye, Appiah, Monconduit, Owusu, Aiki took part in the collective sessions since Monday.
Injured at the end of the season, Lamine Fomba trains separately with a specific program. Gaëtan Charbonnier will join his teammates tomorrow after extending his contract with the Greens.
Three players will still be missing. Summoned by his selection from Guinea, Saïdou Sow played two matches in June. It is allowed to resume only on July 10.
Eliminated from Euro Espoir against Ukraine, Niels Nkounkou, officially from Saint-Etienne, will return on July 26.
That is 10 days before the opening of the next Ligue 2 BKT season. A relatively short time to hope to see the blueberry start against Grenoble.
After competing in the Euro Espoirs, Niels Nkounkou will return to L’Etrat on July 26. #ASSE
