Strasbourg is already worrying, even though the season has not even officially started yet. In addition to its poor results during its friendly matches (6 defeats in 6 matches, 22 goals conceded), the Alsatian club is seeing all its best talents leave one after the other. Valentín Barco, Emanuel Emegha and Mike Penders have already left for Chelsea. Julio Enciso and Abdoul Ouattara are expected at Ipswich, while Samir El Mourabet and Diego Moreira are courted by RB Leipzig. We need reinforcements and quickly, and if possible with a little experience.

For the moment, Filip Jörgensen, Giovanni Reyna, Mateo Del Blanco, Diogo Sousa, Hermann Malonga, Milosz Piekutowski and Benjamin Brantlind have arrived but they have the particularity of being generally young. However, management insists in this direction. According to BildFábio Baldé (21 years old) is expected in the coming hours. This 21-year-old left winger (right-handed) with dual Portuguese and German nationality will arrive in Alsace for €7 million (in addition to bonuses). Substitute for Hamburg last season where he only played 17 games in all competitions (1 goal), the player is still under contract until 2029.
