While the project led by Jean-Michel Roussier and Mathieu Bodmer seems to have a head start to take over ASSE, Laurent Battles however assures that he is not concerned.
On November 23, KPMG , the audit firm responsible for examining the applications for the takeover of ASSE , will present to Roland Romeyer and Bernard Caïazzo the selected offers . Among them, the project of a Swiss fund seems to hold the rope. It must be said that the new organization chart would consist of Jean-Michel Roussier as president and Mathieu Bodmer as sports director. A few months ago, L'Equipe even put forward the name of Laurent Battles to take over from Claude Puel . The coach of the ESTAC has also raised this subject.
Battles comes out of silence
“Today there are people who are working, people who are in place, there is everything going on there. The only thing I know is that my friends are going to come and watch the game on Sunday. They come up from Sainté to see me. They are supporters of both the Greens and me! (laughs) As for the rest … You never know what the future holds! I’m already very happy to have a job. Any comment to make on Bodmer's project? No, I have no comment to make on this. It's like what happened this summer, I was sent all over the place, to a lot of clubs. Today I have a contract at Troyes, I am very well at Troyes, I have great respect for this club which allows me to grow. I don't have to talk about what's going to happen, “said Battles in an interview with Poteaux Carrés.
