It’s the start of the adventure without them. For its first match of 2021 this Sunday (6.30 p.m.) against Jura Sud in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France, ASSE will for the first time have to do without its African internationals who left for CAN. They are five in total: Harold Moukoudi and Yvan Neyou (Cameroon), Saidou Sow (Guinea), Denis Bouanga (Gabon) and Wahbi Khazri (Tunisia).
Qualified Bakary Sako
To these absences must be added the packages of two players positive for Covid-19. Ignacio Ramirez is one of them on the daily L’Equipe. Romain Hamouma and Étienne Green will still not be available. To compensate, Pascal Dupraz can count on Bakary Sako. The 33-year-old striker who signed with the Greens on Thursday is qualified for the meeting against Jura Sud. The coach of the Greens should also draw heavily on the reserve team to form his group.
