After presenting the three new goalkeepers of the Cuvée 2017-2018 of the ASEC mimosas, we present to you, the five (5) recruits of the defense who have convinced the leaders and the new coach of the ASEC Mimosas of their talent.
The new head coach of the ASEC Mimosas, AMANI Yao Lambert César talks about the five recruits of the defence that are the right side DENIS Kay Damsen, Zana Oumar COULIBALY, the left laterals Karim TOURE, Samake Gaoussou and the left central defender Coulibaly Wonlo.
Here’s what he thinks of them: “To recruit these players, we have left very simple criteria that the technicians take into account today when it comes to enlisting players.” Regarding these elements, we have seen that they all have defensive qualities collectively as individually in one against one, but that they also have the qualities to participate in the offensive actions of their team. This requires a lot more technical qualities, either in the axis or on the sides. We noticed in them a great tactical intelligence when they were evolving in other teams. “It is for all these qualities put together that we have engaged these players.”
