ASVP targets survival amid financial strain

Mauritian club ASVP focuses on budget prudence and squad renewal for the new Super League season.

The Association Sportive de Vacoas/Phoenix (ASVP) begins the new Mauritian Super League season with a focus on financial caution and squad changes. The club finished eighth last season with 23 points, recording seven wins, two draws, and nine losses.

Facing major financial difficulties and the departure of key players, ASVP's 53-year-old coach Pramen Armoogum is working with a limited budget. The team has signed only one foreign player, a Malagasy student, and integrated young talent from local development centers.

ASVP's first match is against title contender Cercle de Joachim on Monday, November 9, 2026. The club's primary goal is to build a strong team to secure its position in the top league.
