Liverpool target Mathys Angely set to join Wolfsburg | OneFootball

Mathys Angely (17) had announced his departure from FC Girondins de Bordeaux after the club renounced their professional status.

The young defender had been one of the hopes for the future of the club, but financial troubles had led to a situation where all players were released from their contracts as the team were relegated down from Ligue 2 to the fourth flight of French football. This situation has already seen Bordeaux’s manager Albert Riera leave the club to join Slovenia’s RK Celje.
