The 24-year-old midfielder has said that in order to further his development as a player, it is time for him to leave the Stade Municipal
Etienne Capoue is one of the most talented young players in French football at the moment. However, despite his immense talent, the youngster has still not experienced the joy of playing for the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 national side.
This inability to break into Les Bleus senior side has now forced the Niort-born player to publicly express his desire to leave the club. After five seasons near the banks of the River Garonne, Capoue has chosen to talk about reasons behind his desire to
play elsewhere next season.
While talking to L’Equipe, Capoue used the example of former teammate http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-c9879 Congre who left Les Pitchouns after eight years for Montpellier. And, Capoue says that he also wants to play in the Champions League as he wants to play against the best teams in
Europe.
Despite his love for the Toulouse, the player knows that he cannot achieve all this at his current club.
“I want to play in Champions League, to face the best teams in the continent. Toulouse cannot offer me that this season. We missed Europe at the end of the Championnat. Yes, I want to leave. It’s not that I’m not happy at Toulouse, but I want to move on
to progress, pass a course and integrate as quickly as possible in the France team.”
The 24-year-old is convinced that leaving Toulouse will help him achieve his goals. However, despite his wishes, Toulouse president, Olivier Sadran is not a kind of man who will let go of his star player that easily.
A Spanish sports daily claims of Seville’s interest in Capoue but Sadran claims that so far, no club has made an approach to Les Pitchouns for Capoue.
“For Etienne, I have not received any offers. Many big clubs think that some of our top players have yet to mature.”
Under the radar of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mathieu-Debuchy-c24682 (Lille) may be on the horizon.
