Do you still remember Djeidi Gassama? The young Frenchman has progressed well since his time at Eupen.
Three years ago, Eupen was loaned Djeidi Gassama from PSG. Along with several Parisian hopefuls like Teddy Alloh or Nathan Bitumazala (the only one still active at Kehrweg), he was to develop among the Pandas and help the club stay in D1A.
In the eastern cantons, the winger of Mauritanian origins took a little time to establish himself as a starter, only establishing himself in the eleven at the end of the season. Kristoffer Andersen and then Edward Still have long used it as a supersub.
With his speed, Gassama could hurt tired defenses late in the match. He thus folded a match by scoring the break goal against Ronny Deila’s Standard during an evening of jubilation in November 2022.

On the heels of his return from loan, PSG sold him to Sheffield Wednesday. He gradually established himself there and remains on a season with 7 goals in the Championship. His performances convinced the Glasgow Rangerswho spent nearly two million to recruit him last summer.
Despite the Rangers’ tortuous season, the former Pandas directly established himself with 4 goals in 6 Champions League preliminary matches, enough to establish himself permanently as a starter. Against Motherwell, his liveliness once again worked miracles, his club also highlighted his full match (player to have completed the most dribbles, the most key passes, and shots on target). Did the Pro League underestimate him?
