Alongside the director of security and organization, Guy Cazadamont, sporting director Jose Anigo. As of Wednesday evening, security guards will be outside the homes of players.Vehicles of a security company in contact with the police will turn all night outside the homes of all players and staff according to residential areas defined in advance and more sensitive sectors will be developed later with the continued presence of vigilantes.“It’s absurd to get there” regretted Jose Anigo who also said that the club had advised the players living in isolated houses to move to apartments, and that the principle of housing stock was in the study even if it is “difficult to accommodate everyone in one place.”Andre linked with moves to Liverpool, Bayern Munich and Manchester United has returned to pre-season with the team in France.Source: Ghanasoccernet.com
