Govou initially discussed the decision to make new additions in the January window, telling French publication Le Progres: "Regarding the transfer window, I understand the coach wants a striker, a centre-back, and two or three midfielders. But when a system is working well, you have to be careful, because it can break down very quickly.
"Would a striker who scored more goals put in the same defensive work as Satriano? I only believe in the winter transfer window when you need to replace an injured player. I'm not sure it's always good for the team's balance.
Meanwhile on the signing of Endrick, Govou added: "Nobody knows enough about Endrick to know what he's capable of, even if he's undoubtedly a good player. However, be careful, a substitute who never plays often indicates a problem. Endrick will have individual goals that might not align with the team's collective objectives, and that's what bothers me."
