AS PSI turn down US Moursal for Nassar Koulelengar
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Gérard Diarra puts it in writing
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at AS PSI, and it is not being withdrawn.

Brahim Goudja and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

AS PSI rebuffed over Issa Youssouf
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. AS Etat Major have kept their man, and AS PSI go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Brahim Goudja signs something — a contract at AS PSI or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

Gérard Diarra knocks on the manager’s door
“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Gérard Diarra trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.
In brief
- The dugout Félix Noubara keeps his manager's vote
- Match Mid-table, and AS PSI know it
- Squad Marius Hissein back in training
