Troyes Bolster Attack with Signing of Babacar Gueye; Defender Maxime Colin Set to Leave
With the transfer window rapidly closing, Troyes have made a significant addition to their squad by securing Senegalese striker Babacar Gueye. The 20-year-old forward, formerly of AS Dakar Sacré Cœur, has signed a two-year contract with the Ligue 2 side, keeping him at the club until 2016. Gueye is set to make his debut in French professional football this season, as Troyes look to strengthen their attacking options.
In a contrasting development, Troyes are preparing to part ways with defender Maxime Colin. The 22-year-old full-back is reportedly set to join Belgian giants Anderlecht. According to local newspaper L’Est Eclair, Colin is currently undergoing a medical ahead of finalising his transfer, which is expected to be completed by tonight or tomorrow morning.
The arrival of Gueye and the departure of Colin signal an active period for Troyes as they fine-tune their squad ahead of the new Ligue 2 campaign.
