Paris FC interested in Lorient’s Arsene Kouassi

Paris FC interested in Lorient’s Arsene Kouassi Arsene Kouassi (22), after an excellent season at FC Lorient, could be on the move this summer, as per a report from Sacha Tavolieri .  Kouassi joined  Les Merlus  from formative club AC Ajaccio last summer for a meagre €1.2m fee. It proved to be an excellent bit of business. In his debut season for  Les Merlus,  the full-back netted twice and delivered an impressive eight assists in 33 games in all competitions.  His spell at the Moustoir could prove to be a short one as he is already attracting interest, especially from other Ligue 1 clubs. Tavolieri  understands that Paris FC, who look set to appoint former Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior as the successor to Antoine Kombouaré, have made contact with the left-back’s entourage.  Les Parisiens  have detailed their ambitious project, the journalist adds. There has also been interest from Olympique de Marseille, who, short of cash, could not align with the €10m price tag (minimum) set by Lorient.  GFFN | Luke Entwistle
