AS Saint-Étienne is in the midst of the final sprint to secure a spot on the podium in Ligue 1. Currently in the 4th position, the team aims to finish the season in 3rd place, which would grant them entry into the preliminary round of the Champions League. To achieve this, they face tough competition in the remaining matches, including encounters with Lorient, Marseille, and Lille.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, the prolific striker for Saint-Étienne, remains optimistic despite the challenging schedule. In an interview with Le Parisien, the Gabonese player acknowledged the difficulty of the upcoming matches but expressed confidence in the team’s ability to play their style of football. Finishing 4th would still be considered a successful season, but the allure of the Champions League and the possibility of hosting prominent clubs at Geoffroy-Guichard motivates the players. Aubameyang believes it would be a fantastic experience for both the team and the fans.
