Ligue 1 Club Interested in ₦6 Billion Move for Super Eagles Star
Cyriel Dessers, a Nigerian forward, is reportedly a target for French club St. Etienne as the January transfer window approaches.
Dessers, 30, has had a career that has taken him to nine clubs in four countries. He currently plays for Rangers in Scotland, but St. Etienne, who are trying to avoid relegation from Ligue 1, are interested in signing him.
Dessers’ Situation at Rangers
Dessers joined Rangers in 2023 and was a key player last season, scoring 16 goals in 35 league matches. However, his playing time has been reduced recently due to the arrival of Moroccan player Hamza Igamane.
St. Etienne, currently in 16th place in Ligue 1 and fighting to stay in the top division, is closely watching Dessers’ situation at Rangers. They may try to sign him in January.
Transfer Fee and Interest
Reports from France suggest that St. Etienne is willing to pay around €4 million (approximately ₦6 billion) for Dessers. While this is a significant amount for a club like St. Etienne, the club is ready to make the investment to strengthen their squad.
