Given the sporting situation of ASSE, Bernard Caïazzo could well decide to postpone the sale of the Saint-Etienne club.
A few weeks ago, Roland Romeyer had a strong wish for the sale of the ASSE : “At one point or another we will end up getting there, we have to. 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 will normally only be beneficial for the club. “ KPMG , audit firm mandated by ASSE to scrutinize the files of candidates for the club's redemption, seems to keep the deadlines since the deadline for submitting an offer was set for Monday. However, Bernard Caïazzo could restart everything.
The sale of ASSE postponed?
Indeed, as L'Equipe reminds us, it is well the president of the Supervisory Board who will have the last word for the sale of the club. And although several offers have been sent, at least three, Bernard Caïazzo would advocate patience. And for good reason, the sporting situation of ASSE , 19th in Ligue 1 after snatching its first victory of the season against Clermont (3-2) on Sunday, changes the plans of the Greens. The value of the club has fallen and the 60M € hoped for by Roland Romeyer and Bernard Caïazzo are only a distant memory. The two current owners have no intention of selling the club at a discount which prompts Caïazzo to consider postponing the process, hoping that the sporting situation will improve. Which represents a hell of a risk.
