Clermont had shown interest in acquiring Stredair Appuah, but the transfer was unsuccessful. Appuah's desire to return to France played a crucial role in his decision-making process. Although clubs such as Le Mans and Clermont expressed interest, the transfer did not come to fruition. The difficulties Appuah encountered during his early months at Palermo made him doubtful about continuing his career in Italy, leading him to prioritize a move back to France. However, his future remains uncertain as he continues to look for a team with a coach who believes in his potential and provides opportunities for growth.
