Zapping But! Football Club AS Saint-Etienne: Batlles, a good choice for the greens?
AS Saint-Étienne will not be bought by David Blitzer. Indeed, a close shareholder of ASSE said Friday evening that negotiations with the American billionaire had ended suddenly. “The negotiations between the shareholders of AS Saint-Etienne and the American businessman David Blitzer for the takeover of the professional football club have failed, explained a press release. The exclusive negotiation period, which began 45 days ago, ended at midnight on Thursday night without reaching an agreement. It was not extended. The sales process continues. the club will communicate on this subject on Monday. »
To the chagrin of the Greens supporters, the sale of their club is therefore once once more postponed. Since this resounding announcement, they have learned some disturbing behind-the-scenes news regarding the functioning of ASSE. It is once once more Romain Molina who got his hands dirty to make some damning revelations.
The previous PEAK6 and Markarian
“Maybe they don’t say firm offer because it is not subject to negotiation, but there is an offer, insists the independent journalist on his channel. The Blitzer group made this offer with their own funds, they bought clubs in Belgium, Spain, are in negotiations in Denmark and have never had any problems when they wanted to buy back. How to explain that the first time they have a problem, it’s Saint-Étienne? It reminds us of 2019 when the Americans (ed., PEAK6) became completely crazy (…) and it also reminds us of Markarian’s comments on the club’s lack of transparency… Now, if Saint-Étienne stays in L2, you’re close to filing for bankruptcy next year if there are not 20 to 30 who are going to be put. »
