Strasbourg and Monaco have reached an agreement around 14 million euros for the transfer of Jean-Eudes Aholou to the Principality. Goalkeeper Matz Sels (Newcastle) is close to Alsace

As revealed on June 17 in our columns, Monaco had made Jean-Eudes Aholou of Strasbourg a priority to replace Fabinho, and the matter was already well underway a month ago. . The ASM found a common ground on Tuesday night with Racing, around a transfer fee of about € 14 million, while the player will commit 5 years. On this occasion, Strasbourg realizes the biggest sale of its history and a very interesting added value since the Ivorian international midfielder (24 years old) had arrived from Orléans for about 350.000 € in January 2017.
                    

Part of this sum could be reinvested by the Alsatian club, which is still looking for a goalkeeper, right-handed center-back and an attacker. As a goalkeeper, the RCSA has been advancing for several days on the track of Belgian international Matz Sels. The 26-year-old goalkeeper, under contract until 2021 with Newcastle (English D1) where he plays little, is interested in the project Strasbourg. His arrival could be resolved in the next few hours around 4M €.
