Saint-Étienne's Ibrahim Sissoko joins Bochum
AS Saint-Étienne forward Ibrahim Sissoko (29) will leave the club upon the expiry of his deal at the end of this month to join German side VfL Bochum.

He notably missed a chunk of the season for a violent challenge in a Coupe de France fixture, whilst his minutes were also limited by the arrival of Lucas Stassin, brought in to lead the line. Advertisement Saint-Étienne, who have now dropped back into Ligue 2, have opted against extending the Malian's deal. He therefore leaves on a free transfer and he has immediately found a new club. He has joined Bochum, who will play their football in the Bundesliga 2 next season. The duration of his contract has not been revealed by the German club. At Sainté, Sissoko scored 16 goals in 53 appearances. GFFN | Luke Entwistle

Saint-Étienne manager ‘expects' Lucas Stassin to stay at club
AS Saint-Étienne look set to dig their heels in. Despite relegation to Ligue 2, the club want to keep hold of their star asset, Lucas Stassin (20). As revealed by L'Équipe on Thursday, Les Verts have slapped a €20m price tag on the Belgian, who in his first season in French football excelled, finishing the campaign with 12 goals and five assists in Ligue 1. However, his goals could not prevent ASSE from dropping back down to Ligue 2. They finished the season second from bottom, ahead of Montpellier HSC. Advertisement However, despite the setback, Saint-Étienne are not in a precarious financial situation, unlike other relegated sides, Montpellier and Stade de Reims. Due to the takeover from Kilmer Sports Ventures last summer, they are not obliged to sell off key assets, such as Stassin and Zuriko Davitashvili, also valued at around €20m. They could, therefore, look to retain Stassin, a target for Premier League sides. 'I'm expecting Lucas to be there next season,' said Eirik Horneland in a press conference transcribed by Foot Mercato's Sébastien Denis. 'I think he'll say because he is a good player. He has a contract (until 2028). His situation doesn't depend on him; it depends on us,' he added. Time will tell whether ASSE's stance breeds conflict. GFFN | Luke Entwistle
