The “Gerrard agreement” targets the quartet of Mane, Coutinho, Obamyang and Morata

After a complex round of negotiations, English coach Stephen Gerrard officially signed with the Saudi Al-Ittifaq club, nicknamed “Knight of Dahna”, to take over his training for two seasons, starting from the new football season that will start next month.

Al-Ettifaq ranked seventh in the Saudi Professional League, which consisted of 16 teams last season, before the upper division was expanded to include 18 teams, starting from the new season.

And the British newspaper “Daily Mail” revealed Gerrard’s upcoming plan in the agreement, through which he seeks to place the team among the top Saudi Professional Football League, next season.

The first deal that Gerrard wants to include in the coastal club is the captain of Liverpool FC, the English international midfielder Jordan Henderson, whose name is being presented for the first time as a possible option in the Saudi stadiums.

Henderson is 33 years old, and he started his football career at Sunderland in the north of England, before joining Liverpool in the summer of 2011 and continues to represent the Red Club until now, as Henderson is close to 500 matches in the Reds shirt.

Henderson’s contract with Liverpool extends for the next two seasons, which means that Al-Ettifaq Club needs to agree with Liverpool first to include the player, who may be tempted by a high financial contract in Saudi stadiums.

Gerrard’s second goal, according to the Daily Mail, will be Gabonese striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who is a year older than Henderson, at the age of 34, and is looking for a new start following a very disappointing season at Chelsea.

The former Arsenal striker moved to Stamford Bridge from Barcelona for £10.3m last summer but scored just 3 goals in 21 appearances.

Aubameyang might join the squad of Chelsea players leaving the Saudi League, in the footsteps of N’Golo Kante, Kalidou Coulibaly and Edouard Mendy.

Aubameyang started his football career growing up in the Italian club Milan, before representing many French clubs such as Dijon, Monaco, Lille and Saint-Etienne, then he moved to Borussia Dortmund in Germany in 2013, where his talent exploded in 5 seasons there, following which he moved to Arsenal, in which he won the title of top scorer in the English Premier League. In 2019, before playing a season for Barcelona and leaving for Chelsea.

The third candidate to join Gerrard in the agreement is Brazilian midfielder and playmaker Philippe Coutinho of Aston Villa, who suffered from injuries last season, which made him outside the accounts of Spanish coach Unai Emery for most of the season, which might make him think regarding playing in the league. Saudi.

Coutinho (31 years old) was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, before starting his European professional journey in 2008 from the gate of the Italian club Inter Milan, before he glowed during his playing period in Liverpool between 2013 and 2018, following which he moved for a record amount to the Spanish club Barcelona, ​​​​It is estimated at 105 million pounds sterling. But things did not go well at the Blaugrana Castle, where the player was loaned to Bayern Munich, then to Aston Villa, before he finally moved to the English team last summer.

The fourth possible goal for Gerrard in the agreement, according to the “Daily Mail”, is the Senegalese winger Sadio Mane, the German player of Bayern Munich, whose first season in the castle of the Bavarian team was not good, as he scored only 12 goals, and suffered many injuries, as well as problems such as The incident that occurred between him and his colleague Leroy Sane, and caused him to be suspended internally at the club.

Mane, 31, started his football career in Europe from the French club Metz, before playing two seasons for the Austrian club Red Bull Salzburg, and from there he moved to English Southampton, where he scored 25 goals in two seasons there, which prompted Liverpool to sign him in the summer of 2016. And in Liverpool Mane won many titles, most notably the 2020 English Premier League title and the 2019 European Champions League title.

Supporting the team’s attack, dubbed “Knight of Dahna”, seems to be preoccupying Gerrard as well, and the target this time will be the Spanish international striker Alvaro Morata, the Atletico Madrid striker.

The agreement opened the door to initial discussions regarding a transfer for the Spain striker, with the hope that they might persuade him to become one of Gerrard’s first signings.

Morata, 30, started his football career as a junior at Atletico Madrid, then represented many of the major clubs in the old continent, where he played for Real Madrid, Juventus and Chelsea, before returning to Atletico last summer and participating in 45 matches last season, during which he scored 15 goals. .

Morata has also been an international player in the Spanish national team for 9 years, during which he participated in 64 international matches, scored 30 goals, and was a key element in La Roja’s campaign to win the European Nations League title last month in the Netherlands.

“Or you came back, or you left, saying that you would never come and eat at that idiot’s house once more, barefoot on the terrace.“With his exotic shirt and his mismatched shoes when he is not barefoot, chef Lucky Baufays is indeed a poem, à la cool, à la Seychelloise, his favorite destination.

While it might have celebrated its 20th anniversary this year, the Mas des Cigales, giving Provençal airs to rue Ferdinand Francot, had not reopened since the Covid. It is with a twinge of heart that the whole Floriffoux (and beyond) learned of the sale of the picturesque establishment, at the end of June. “It is for sale as a business or a house. I still dream of falling on the pearl, a couple why not, to give back the merit of the Mas des cigales: a small village restaurant with a soul. People didn’t just come to eat, they came to see me, to laugh.“… and sometimes taking it in the face, with his outspokenness, the chef did not let himself be done.

A few months ago, the dozens of ceramic cicadas and the decoration had been sold. “I would have liked to bounce back with a Herisseau-style hostel (Editor’s note. on the other side of the RN, also permanently closed). This is the concept to do. Expensive gourmet restaurants are everywhere. But there is no longer really an inn with, on the menu, a stew with carrots and a sausage, a pudding-compote, a marrow bone, a meunière veal brain… Dishes that you no longer see anywhere and that I try to bring back in my weekly boxes or that I propose au local supermarket. “

Life has not always spoiled him and the weight of the years is felt for one of the oldest restaurateurs in Namur (he had started as a clerk, at 14, at the Relais du Roi Louis, previous assignment of the white farm in Malonne), the chef withdraws from his open kitchen to concentrate on this activity of catering dishes and helping his peers, left to right. Without refraining, why not, from animating the village during small thematic parties such as Halloween or New Year’s Eve, on a smaller scale than its traditional summer mega-barbecue, which brought together several hundred guests and on which it seems to have definitely drawn a line.
