10th in Ligue 2 on the eve of matchday 38, ASSE made two important signings for next season official on Thursday. On loan with an option to buy from Standard Liege and Everton, Mathieu Cafaro (26) and Niels Nkounkou (22) have signed contracts with Les Verts until 2025 and 2026 respectively. Both deals are expected to cost the club around €2.5m.

Mathieu Cafaro played 32 matches this season, scoring 5 goals and providing 3 assists, including a gem against Annecy which was voted Ligue 2's finest goal of the season last Sunday. Nkounkou, a former OM player, arrived at Saint-Etienne last winter and immediately made his mark, scoring 6 goals and providing 7 assists in 19 matches played.
