Csongvai to Saint-Étienne, done
Áron Csongvai leaves AIK with immediate effect. The midfielder has signed for AS Saint-Étienne, and the deal was confirmed early Wednesday evening (1) (2) (3). AIK will net between 5 and 10 million kronor from the sale, placing it in the club's Class III bracket (1).
The 23-year-old had already played his last match for the club. No goodbye tour, no drawn-out saga, just a clean break and a move to Ligue 1.
Rayo Vallecano pushing hard for Chourak
AIK may miss out on Nassef Chourak. Rayo Vallecano are pressing to get a deal done for the Kalmar FF talent, and sources say the Spanish club is his preferred destination (5).
AIK reportedly have terms ready. That does not matter if the player is looking elsewhere.
Chourak, 20, has drawn interest from multiple clubs this window. Rayo's urgency suggests they want this wrapped up fast.
