Amputated from its two scorers from last season, Steve Mounié (left for Augsburg) and Martin Satriano (left for Inter Milan), Brest only has Jérémy Le Douaron in the axis who has also scored two goals in two friendlies. Insufficient despite everything to approach an intense summer between prestigious friendlies (Juventus Turin in particular), an explosive return to L1 (reception of OM then trip to Lens) before discovering the Champions League in September. It is therefore an understatement to say that Grégory Lorenzi is active to strengthen his team.
A well-known Ligue 1 striker, who has scored 46 goals and provided 17 assists in 135 French championship matches, is close to arriving in Finistère. According to our information, Brest is negotiating the arrival of Ludovic Ajorque, who is also being tracked by LOSC, Saint-Étienne and FC Nantes. The former Strasbourg serial scorer, under contract with Mainz until June 2026, wants to return to Ligue 1 and has shown himself to be receptive to the Stade Brestois project where he could have a major role, probably more than at LOSC for example. A transfer estimated at around €4 to €5 million is currently being discussed between the two clubs.
