Angers historically has a successor ready for the role Taït➡️Reine-Adélaïde Reine-Adélaïde➡️Fulgini Fulgini➡️Ounahi Ounahi ➡️Abdelli Abdelli➡️??? In the current squad, there is no one. So as well as a disruptive sale, finding a replacement is vital. Made even harder in January.

Given the situation with Abdelli, signing Branco van den Boomen on loan is a good opportunity. Injuries have hampered his time at Ajax, so if he stays fit, he'll be sure to help us through to the end of the season. Belkebla and Belkhdims running will support him nicely.

Those of us will remember the links to Koyalipou when he was playing for Niort 😉 For a Chérif replacement at this time, it's hard to fault. We maintain a physical attacking presence while adding an aerial threat. With how little shots we take, Koyalipou gets plenty #AngersSCO

Barely 5 months ago we were anticipating he'd be able to start contributing. How quickly he's progressed but it's a shame to see him leave so early. A huge, huge sale for Angers SCO. 2 years after Bahoya, another academy graduate from the club is sold for a big fee. #AngersSCO

Speechless... That is simply ridiculous #SCOTFC
