En Avant Guingamp head coach Fred Le Grand has sent a clear message about Louis Mafouta’s future at the club. The manager wants to keep him — but knows football can change everything overnight.
When asked about Louis Mafouta’s future, Fred Le Grand made no secret of his desire to keep the striker. « He is still a Guingamp player for two seasons. We have a frank and direct conversation with him. If he were to stay next season, it wouldn’t displease me at all, » the EAG manager stated. Strong words that underline the importance of Mafouta within the Breton club’s sporting project, as the attacker has established himself as one of the team’s most valuable offensive assets.
However, the coach was quick to add a note of caution: « Football moves fast. » A short phrase that perfectly encapsulates the unpredictability of the summer transfer window. If no club comes knocking to disrupt Guingamp’s plans, Louis Mafouta looks set to pull on the red and black shirt again next season. One to watch closely in the weeks ahead.
