Posted on November 7, 2021 at 5:10 pm by The editorial staff While ASSE is on sale, Mathieu Bodmer would today be the best placed to take over the Greens. The former player of the Saint-Etienne club could be accompanied by Jean-Michel Roussier, president of OM between 1995 and 1999. Present at the head of ASSE since 2004 , Roland Romeyer and Bernard Caïazzo now want to sell the Saint Etienne club. “At one point or another we will end up getting there, it has to be. I would like this to be done before the end of the calendar year. If we find the right candidate, who meets our criteria, the change can normally only be beneficial for the club, ”said the president of the Greens Board in particular. And the sale of the ASSE could well accelerate behind the scenes, since The Team announced recently that the firm KPMG was waiting until Monday to make an audit on the possible buyers. A few hours from this deadline, a project would hold the rope … The Bodmer-Roussier project would have a head start According to information from BUT Football Club, the project led by Mathieu Bodmer and Jean-Michel Roussier would be on pole to buy the ASSE and would even have had access to the Data Room. Olivier Markarian would also have had access to the latter but would still be ahead of the duo Bodmer-Roussier . The two men are said to have the support of certain Swiss and North American funds. The future owners of the Greens will have a lot to do, since ASSE is still the red lantern of Ligue 1, despite its first victory of the season against Clermont this Sunday (3-2).
