Max-Alain Gradel’s versatility has made him a valuable asset for Saint-Étienne, often making a significant impact off the bench and becoming a standout player in recent weeks. With interest from English clubs, the Ivorian midfielder could be eyeing a return to the Premier League next season.
Although his contract with ASSE runs until June 2015, Gradel faces a crucial decision regarding his future in the upcoming months: whether to extend his stay with the Greens or seek opportunities elsewhere. Despite previous speculation about his departure, Gradel remained with ASSE and delivered an impressive performance in the second half of the season.
“Max has been a crucial player for Saint-Étienne this season, attracting interest from clubs worldwide. He would be open to a move to the Premier League if the opportunity arises. His time at Leeds showcased his abilities, and the style of play in England suits him well. Now a regular member of the Ivorian national team, he is focused on contributing to his team during the World Cup in Brazil after helping Saint-Étienne secure their European future for next season,” stated Tra Desmond, his agent, to Sky Sport.
