Kilmer Sports would be ready to open the door to Lucas Stassin or Zuriko Davitashvili this winter, according to Romain Molina. Between the Belgian and the Georgian, which striker does ASSE have the most interest in transferring? This is our debate…
“Stassi”
“Already last summer, I positioned myself for a transfer from Lucas Stassin. My opinion has not changed. The Belgian wants to leave, his father makes no secret of it. And Stassin has not played at his level over the last six months. He only scored 4 goals in the first part of the season, weighed down by two injuries. I find it difficult to see him as an essential player, especially since it was with Duffus up front that ASSE obtained its best results. In the event of a good offer, I therefore think that Kilmer Sports should press the button, even more so if it can allow N’Guessan to have more playing time and convince him to stay despite the English and German sirens.
Davitashvili has never made waves. And he finished well. With 8 goals, he is ASSE’s top scorer. Difficult to find a winger who scores so much. In addition, the Georgian expressed around ten days ago his desire to stay, to help ASSE achieve its objectives. So I wouldn’t understand if KSV separated from him. It would not be at all consistent with his ambitions and it would be a big loss. Whereas Stassin, given his performance and his state of mind…”

You have to keep both!
“Rather than choosing between Lucas Stassin and Zuriko Davitashvili, AS Saint-Étienne has every interest in keeping them both this winter, even if it may seem utopian. Stassin, despite the interest of clubs like Paris FC or Rennes, remains a promising striker who could make the difference in Ligue 2 with his profile, and ASSE is not obliged to sell him for its finances thanks to the project carried by Kilmer. But the Belgian has his mind elsewhere, and it shows, which is very disturbing. Davitashvili, for his part, is a valuable offensive weapon who has already shown that he can weigh in on matches and remains under contract, which gives depth to the Saint-Etienne attack.
Sportingly, keeping both would allow Saint-Étienne to maintain a wide variety of offensive options and increase its chances of aiming to return to Ligue 1, rather than weakening itself by losing one of its key profiles in the middle of the season. Their presence in the squad is still valuable and still offers Horneland great weapons to meet the various challenges of L2.
