Steve Mounié Transfer from FC Augsburg to Angers SCO
Steve Mounié was close to joining Angers SCO in Ligue 1, but the transfer failed at the last moment due to financial problems at the French club. He is under contract with FC Augsburg until 2027 and joined them only a year ago.
Kicker reports on the complications surrounding Steve Mounié's potential transfer to Angers. Steve Mounié was set to return to Ligue 1 on a loan deal to Angers for a season. However, due to financial problems at Angers, the already negotiated loan did not materialize. Mounié was expected to have a more significant role at Angers compared to Augsburg.
Kicker reports on the imminent loan transfer of Steve Mounié to Angers. Steve Mounié is poised for a loan move to the French first-division club Angers. The captain of Benin's national team was absent from the final training session on Friday and the matchday squad, indicating the transfer is close but not yet finalized.
Steve Mounié's contract could not be homologated by the commission, similar to the situation with Rémi Labeau-Lascary, due to financial constraints at Angers.
Steve Mounié will join Angers on a loan without an option to buy. Augsburg will cover part of his salary. This move is to immediately compensate for the departure of Esteban Lepaul at the end of the summer transfer window.
Steve Mounié, currently at Augsburg, is considered to replace Estéban Lepaul at Angers. The negotiations have started well, with a loan being preferred. Mounié was previously noted for his performance in Ligue 1 with Brest.
Steve Mounié joined FC Augsbourg this summer following the conclusion of his contract with Brest. Although Brest had offered to extend his contract with the opportunity to play in the Champions League, he opted for a move to the Bundesliga. Now, Angers, positioned 14th in Ligue 1, has expressed interest in acquiring Mounié on loan. The 30-year-old Beninese forward, who has yet to score his first goal in the German league, is being targeted by Angers as they aim to make a substantial impact in their battle to remain in Ligue 1. It is yet to be determined if Mounié is open to accepting the challenge proposed by Angers.
