It’s 11 p.m. this Thursday evening at the Paris FC center in Orly.
The loan of young hopeful from Metz Ibou Sané (18 years old) has just collapsed.
The striker from the Génération Foot center in Dakar, considered the best of Senegal's 2004 generation, is on the verge of tears.
However, he had arrived in Paris during the day, had undergone his medical examination and was waiting in the Orly offices to sign his contract.
But, at the last moment, the president of Metz Bernard Serin made an about-face.
Despite calls from Paris FC management, he did not respond.
Pierre Dreossi, the general manager of Metz, who worked for Paris FC between 2015 and 2019, would have tried to fix things but in vain.
On the Paris FC side, we were quite upset by the turn of events.
The staff was seduced by Sané's profile, 4 matches in L1 this season including a return to the Parc des Princes against PSG and 8 goals scored with the reserve (N3).
Even without the departure of another attacker (Mohamed Touré), the management of Paris FC still decided to sign him.
The Paris FC transfer window therefore stops at four recruits: Rémy Riou (goalkeeper, Lyon), Tuomas Ollila (left back, Helsinki), Vincent Marchetti (midfielder, AC Ajaccio) and Nouha Dicko (forward, OFI Crete) for two departures , Gabriel Oualengbé (loan, Créteil) and Yohan Demoncy (terminated contract, Annecy).
