Marten-Chris Paalberg due for a SM Caen medical

Everything agreed with AS Saint-Etienne, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad28 Jun 2027

Gautier Lloris 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 SM Caen this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad28 Jun 2027

Silas Gnaka 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.

Transfer targets28 Jun 2027

SM Caen rebuffed over Nicola Leali

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Genoa have kept their man, and SM Caen go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad28 Jun 2027

Time is catching up with Federico Mazur

Everybody at SM Caen saw it before anybody said it, which is how this always goes. At 34 the decline is real and measurable — 3 points — and the only question left is how the club handles somebody it owes a great deal to.

Transfer targets28 Jun 2027

SM Caen try to borrow Enzo Faty

Toulouse FC have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Transfer targets28 Jun 2027

A loan move for Otis Caporusso is in the works

SM Caen have made the call to OGC Nice. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

The dugout28 Jun 2027

No hiding place for Lorenzo Rajot

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Lorenzo Rajot, and the manager let it.

Squad28 Jun 2027

Luca Pausé wants out of the dugout

“I did not sign to watch. Nobody does.” The oldest complaint in the game, and SM Caen will have to answer it with minutes or with a move.

Squad7 Jun 2027

Vinicius Gomes damages knee ligaments — 34 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 34 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Transfer targets7 Jun 2027

SM Caen bid $3.2M for Idrissa Seydi

The offer went to FC Rouen 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.

Transfer targets7 Jun 2027

Mads Bidstrup due for a SM Caen medical

Everything agreed with Olympique Lyonnais, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad7 Jun 2027

A falling-out at SM Caen

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

Squad7 Jun 2027

A row about effort at SM Caen

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

Market7 Jun 2027

Still no ink between SM Caen and Silas Gnaka

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at SM Caen, another week without a signature from Silas Gnaka.

Squad7 Jun 2027

Lorenzo Rajot slips down the pecking order

The demotion a club never announces and a dressing room always notices. Lorenzo Rajot is further from the side than he was, and the reason will not be given until he asks.

The dugout7 Jun 2027

Luca Pausé gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Market7 Jun 2027

The Anthony Mandréa story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Anthony Mandréa signs something — a contract at SM Caen or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

In brief
