ESTAC Troyes bid $14.7M for Abner Vinicius
The offer went to Olympique Lyonnais this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

ESTAC Troyes make their move for Issouf Macalou
$3.5M on the table at Universitatea Cluj. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

ESTAC Troyes go back to the board over Abner Vinicius

ESTAC Troyes find a way past Amiens SC
Amiens SC made ESTAC Troyes work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

One of their own: Amar Fatah
He is 22 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.
