Gerard Hammered will follow leading the saga until it find him a relief of guarantees, Lenglet will be one of the fixed and soon will promote to Ronald Araújo, that will rise from the filial. Besides, Jean-Clair Todibo approaches to a traspaso, Samuel Umtiti could be yielded to check if it recovers his level and there will be more signings, because the one of Yaundé needs a spare to square the four head offices that have requested the technicians.
