Amical. We thought the competition was behind us, but now it seems that the British government is prolonging its pleasure. According to information from Paris-Normandie, confirmed by L’Équipe, Ally Samatta and Fodé Doucouré were unable to make the trip across the Channel with Le Havre for the friendly match against Ipswich Town on Tuesday. The Tanzanian striker and Malian right-back did not, in fact, obtain a visa for England.
Didier Digard will also have to do without Josh Maja**, who has just joined the club. Born in Lewisham, the former Bordeaux attacker likely had no trouble traveling to Great Britain but simply hasn't yet received the visa to work in France.
It's high time we got a move on; the season is coming up fast.
