Sankt-Gallen too late for Patris

TRANSFERS Swiss club Sankt-Gallen has made an attempt to sign Louis Patris, but the right-back has declined the offer as he has already committed to STVV. The loan deal with the Belgian club is expected to be finalized soon. Sankt-Gallen's coach, Enrico Maaßen, had previously shown interest in Patris when he was coaching Augsburg last summer.
