SM Caen has undergone roster adjustments and injury management ahead of their Ligue 3 campaign. In mid-August, the club signed goalkeeper Noa Delacroix, a former AS Saint-Étienne player, to bolster the reserve team. During this period, Yannis Clémentia had established himself as the first-team starting goalkeeper following an injury to Anthony Mandréa. Mandréa, recording four clean sheets in five official appearances. By late August, the club prepared for a match against Aubagne. Coach Gaël Clichy reported optimism regarding player availability, noting that Lionel Carole could make his debut and that several players, including Nazim Babaï, Nassim Titebah, and Anthony Mandréa, were working toward returning to active competition. On August 20, 2026, SM Caen secured a 1-0 victory against Aubagne. The decisive goal was scored in the final minutes of the match after Caen struggled to break through Aubagne’s defensive block. Following the win, Coach Clichy praised his players for their ‘abnegation and courage,’ stating the victory was important for the team’s progression after a previous defeat. However, the momentum was interrupted on August 27, 2026, when SC Bastia defeated SM Caen 1-0 at Stade Malherbe. Clément Rodrigues scored the winning goal for Bastia in the third minute. Following the loss, Coach Clichy attributed the defeat to a lack of creativity and risk-taking, noting that the team struggled to break down Bastia’s low defensive block and required more ‘magic’ and freedom in the final third. Conversely, the loss left Aubagne with zero points and no goals scored this season, placing them in last place and raising questions regarding the future of their coach, Karim Masmoudi.
