Small event, FC Nantes did not finally carry out last minute shopping.
Coach Raymond Domenech, who said he did not want to "recruit to recruit", refused players at the end of the transfer window on Monday.
Attacking midfielder Adam Ounas for example?
“I said no, I didn't need it,” explained Domenech on Tuesday noon.
I didn't want that profile.
He also opposed the arrival of Stiven Mendoza from Amiens.
The technician justified himself: “I didn't want something like that, a guy you don't know, who comes from you don't know where.
[…] I have the phone full of calls from agents who have the best player in the world who is not playing at the moment because he is angry with his coach but who will flourish in Nantes.
We are there with this group, it is with this group that we will maintain ourselves.
"
He wanted Nelson Oliveira
Domenech, who lost young Abdoulaye Dabo (Juventus Turin) and Mehdi Abeid (Al Nasr) during this month of January, nevertheless admitted that the profile of striker Nelson Oliveira, passed through Rennes and currently at AEK Athens, interested him: “It was a different profile that could have been a complement.
"
And when asked if President Kita, known to be fond of player purchases, was not upset by his various refusals, the former Blues coach said, smiling: "I saved him money, you could say that !
