With his contract coming to a end, the 22-year-old's timely return to form will likely spark a fierce race for his signature this summer
Jonathan Bamba has been regarded as one of the jewels of the Saint-Etienne youth academy for several years now.
It has only been this season, however, that the 22-year-old has started to look like something approaching the finished product.
