Daniel Lefebvre is a AS Nancy player
The fee is $3.6M, the contract is signed, and the argument about whether he is worth it can begin. Tours drove a hard bargain; time will say who won it.

Enzo Basilio keeps AS Nancy in it on his own
Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Tempers go at AS Nancy
Pape Niama Sissoko was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

$3.6M for Daniel Lefebvre, and AS Nancy supporters approve
Boards get told what they have done wrong for years and hear nothing on the days they get it right. This is one of those days: Daniel Lefebvre from Tours for $3.6M, and a ticket office having a very good morning.

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. François Lacroix is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Roger Bertrand steps up from the AS Nancy academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Roger Bertrand has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

AS Nancy count the cost of losing Frédéric Guyot
14 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.
In brief
- Market Adrian Dabasse is free to find somewhere else
- Boardroom AS Nancy turn down the training-ground plan
- Match No goals between AS Nancy and Stade Lavallois
