“We’re only talking about the game, huh, though?” Here is what Rémy Cabella (31) said on Sunday after Saint-Étienne’s victory against FC Metz (1-0). Passed by the Stéphanois club between 2017 and 2019, the attacking midfielder, native of Ajaccio, was, in fact, present at Geoffroy Guichard before returning to see his family in Corsica. In the middle of a blur following his departure from Krasnodar (Russia) in the midst of the war in Ukraine, Cabella, under contract until next June with the Russian club, does not really know what his future will hold. In this sense, if the recent press release from Krasnodar clearly states that it will have to wait “final termination” of his contract to find a new club, how not to think of a return of the former Marseillais to the Greens.
A hypothesis to which the main interested party has also responded: “no, at the moment, I’m first waiting for it to end with my club. I still have a few months to think about what I’m going to do. I will prepare myself physically to be in good shape next season.”. Present in the Saint-Etienne locker room to celebrate the victory of some of his former teammates, Cabella received warm support in any case: “He’s a really great person and I hope the situation will work out for him”indicated Mahdi Camara before putting a piece in the machine as to a possible comeback: “You can imagine that I will not refuse a return from Rémy Cabella”. 17th in Ligue 1, ASSE would also probably not say no…
