Market

Angers SCO say no — this time

The offer from KAA Gent for Amine Sbaï 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 Ousmane Camara for $8.6M

Ousmane Camara has left for FC Nantes in a $8.6M deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

The terraces

Angers SCO sell a favourite for $8.6M

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Ousmane Camara was one of the reasons people came, and $8.6M does not replace that by itself.

Market

The LOSC Lille deal is off

Everything was agreed until it was not, and Emmanuel Biumla reports back to Angers SCO with a summer to forget. Neither club is saying who walked away from the table.

Squad

Tempers go at Angers SCO

Jordan Lefort 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.

Boardroom

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Angers SCO

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Squad

Louis Mouton falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Market

Angers SCO promote Benoît Roy from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Benoît Roy has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Squad

A wage question at Angers SCO

Haris Belkebla has done the arithmetic and does not like the answer. Nothing corrodes a squad faster, and no club has ever solved it by explaining the wage structure to a footballer.

In brief
