Posted on October 23, 2021 at 7:10 pm by BC While the draw obtained against Angers (2-2) should allow Claude Puel to remain in post for the moment, ASSE had initially prepared the departure from the Stéphanois coach, and Pascal Dupraz was on pole to land. In an explosive match, marked by overflows in the stands before the kick-off which was delayed by an hour, the ASSE managed to snatch a point in the last seconds against Angers (2-2) thanks to Mickaël Nade . A result that allows Claude Puel to breathe. Although AS Saint-Etienne have yet to win a game this season, the 60-year-old coach is likely to stay in his post according to the latest information from L ' Team. Puel can therefore breathe, especially as everything seemed ready before the game for his departure. Dupraz greatly appreciated by ASSE As L’Equipe explained this Saturday, Claude Puel has come a long way. Before the meeting against Angers , his departure seemed indeed registered by the management of ASSE , which had already decided for his succession. Free from any contract, Pascal Dupraz was on pole to land in the Forez if we are to believe the information from the sports daily. The former coach of Evian and Toulouse indeed pleases Roland Romeyer, the chairman of the management board of the ASSE , but also to Jean-François Soucasse , the executive president, who rubbed shoulders with him on the side of the TFC . Finally, the arrival of Dupraz with the Greens is no longer relevant, even if this lead could become relevant again if the results do not improve quickly. Skip back to main navigation
