Market

Abdul Fatawu arrives at Angers SCO in a $16.2M statement of intent

There comes a point where a club either backs its own ambition or admits it does not have any. Angers SCO have paid $16.2M for Abdul Fatawu, which is the loudest way there is of saying which one it chose.

Player ratings

A brace, and Amine El Ouazzani takes the afternoon — 9.04

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Amine El Ouazzani provided it, and the 9.04 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Market

Angers SCO say no — this time

The offer from Stade Lavallois for Dan Sinaté was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market

Angers SCO sell Marius Courcoul for $1.6M

Marius Courcoul has left for Olympique de Marseille in a $1.6M deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Squad

Words exchanged at Angers SCO

Yassin Belkhdim and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The terraces

The town asked, and Angers SCO paid $16.2M

Abdul Fatawu was the name on every phone-in, and the club has gone and signed him for $16.2M. For one week the board can do no wrong, which is a week most boards never get.

Squad

A row about effort at Angers SCO

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Louis Mouton was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Transfer targets

another club tell Angers SCO: Javi Díaz is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Match

Angers SCO get the job done against Le Havre AC

A 2‑0 win over Le Havre AC, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Transfer targets

Olympique Lyonnais tell Angers SCO: Tyler Morton is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Market

FC Nantes come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Angers SCO did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market

Anthony Lopes wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Angers SCO hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Boardroom

Angers SCO go back to the board over Guy Noël Zohouri

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $125.1K — a club that wants Guy Noël Zohouri enough to be asked twice.

Squad

Louis Mouton signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Louis Mouton and Angers SCO agree another 4 years.

Squad

Louis Mouton in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Angers SCO this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets

An offer of $200.0K for Kyllian Antonio

Angers SCO have gone to RC Lens with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Market

US Creteil are about to pick up the phone

A conversation is coming this week. Angers SCO will put a number on him, and from there it stops being football and becomes arithmetic.

The dugout

Louis Mouton knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Angers SCO, and both men came out saying it was fine.
