Fourth recruit from the summer of AS Saint-Etienne and not the least, Chico Lamba arrives in Forez as part of a paid transfer validated with the FC Arouca club in Portugal. The 22 -year -old defender signed a four -year contract until 2029.
He will carry to the back of his AS Saint-Etienne jersey the number 15, which is unprecedented for him which has often evolved with exotic numbers. Apart from episodically in his years of training in Sporting, with the 3 who suited his post in defense, he has long hung out on the 73.
It was this number 73 that accompanied him from the end of his training at his beginnings with professionals with Sporting Lisbon, then following with FC Arouca. He could have kept it by joining the Greens, but he preferred on the 15th, without the club specifying the exact reasons.
