Transfer window - Nanasi should join Ligue 1 but not ASSE

This is news that should disappoint many Saint-Etienne supporters. Sebastian Nanasi should indeed join the French Ligue 1 championship this summer, but not AS Saint-Étienne.

It's a soap opera that has been going on for several weeks at AS Saint-Étienne: that of the possible arrival of Swedish international Sebastian Nanasi . According to several sources, the Saint-Étienne club came close to signing the player playing at Malmö. Information completely denied by Olivier Dall'Oglio , first on the set of L'Équipe du Soir : " It's totally incredible because in fact from a rumor, I saw that there was a song that came out, moreover a very very beautiful song (laughs). He is not at all tracked by the club, he is not a player that we follow. Of course, we had hundreds of names in fact, but he is not a player that we follow. It's still incredible, I listened to the song today, I still can't believe it. "

Then in a press conference: " I don't know what to tell you (laughs). Rumours are great, honestly. We've studied a lot of profiles, but this isn't a profile we've studied. I know people don't believe me, I read this morning that no one believed me, that people said I was very, very good, that I was a very good actor. But keep going! I think it's great. I found out a bit more about the player this morning, in the song they say he's a tall blond guy and he's my height, so if you think I'm tall, I'm happy (smiles). We started with a magnificent rumour, the song is great, in the style of the 90s, magnificent. I don't know what else to tell you... So maybe it'll give us some ideas (laughs). Maybe we'll start studying the case... The rumour is great, I have the impression that a lot of people are convinced, but then convinced that this boy will arrive (laughs). He is still a Swedish international, that could interest me… Now it will perhaps take a jackpot, if you want to start contributing, because he is a Swedish international, that has a cost ."

According to information from Fabrizio Romano, Sebastian Nanasi should indeed join Ligue 1 but not AS Saint-Étienne. Indeed, the journalist explains that Racing Club de Strasbourg has reached an agreement for the transfer of the Swedish player. The amount of this would be €11M, a record for the Swedish championship. Sebastian Nanasi is traveling this Wednesday to Alsace to finalize his transfer and pass his medical.
