The Burgundian club does not want to make the same mistakes as two years ago, where the late rise, at the end of an obstacle course in the play-offs, precipitated its choices in terms of transfers. The case of this offseason is very different. Crowned Ligue 2 champion, AJA can anticipate on several issues.

He was the captain of FC Lorient this season and is perfectly familiar with the methods of Christophe Pélissier, whom he knew in Brittany.
