Racing Club de Strasbourg kicks off summer transfer window under new coach Hugo Oliveira

Racing Club de Strasbourg appointed Portuguese Hugo Oliveira as head coach and held his first public training session on Monday, drawing over a hundred supporters to the club's facilities. The session showcased new signings such as Benjamin Brantlind, Diogo Sousa, Mateo Del Blanco and goalkeeper Miłosz Piekutowski, while former players and staff, including former Liverpool assistant Djimi Traoré, made appearances.

The club also began work on its summer transfer agenda. Owner BlueCo is expected to sell midfielder Valentin Barco – a deal that could set a new club record – as part of its trading‑based business model and to offset a hefty fine. Additional targets mentioned include Moreira, Doué and Enciso, indicating a busy market period before the 31 August deadline.
