On Saturday, Niels Nkounkou played another 90 minutes as wing back for St Étienne on Saturday. They beat Pau 2-0 and are now 7 points clear of the Ligue 2 relegation zone. No chance of getting promotion so I can't see them signing him permanently. Maybe he can impress a few Ligue 1 scouts?
Also Saturday, Joao Virginia still on the bench for Cambuur who are not doing any better since replacing him. Lost 2-1 and 5 points from safety.
Was just reading a scouting report/write up on his performance against Nimes... https://targetscouting.com/2023/02/27/as-saint-etienne-match-report-vs-nimes-olympique-20-02-2023/
