After two campaigns fighting to save its place in the elite, FC Nantes wants to take a step forward. Antoine Kombouaré has clearly displayed his ambitions for next season. And if this start of the transfer window has been weighed down by the TV rights affair, the technician says he is confident for the future.
“I am not worried because those who are supposed to leave are still here, explained Kombouaré
in remarks given to Ouest France.
We know that we have to be careful with our spending, we must not make mistakes so we take our time. There is no point in piling up. Today, we have a large and competitive group. If we have to leave with this team, I have no worries. The transfer window ends at the beginning of September, players will be able to arrive and leave while the championship will have already started.
Nantes does not want to lose its nuggets
Antoine Kombouaré couldn’t be more right: for once, the FCN coach seems to be on the same wavelength as his president. If he needed a positive signal, it was sent in the last few hours. According to information from Ouest France, Waldemar Kita declined an offer of 12 to 13 million euros with bonuses for Nathan Zézé.
A proof of FC Nantes’ ambitions for the short-term future of the club. Considered one of the most promising talents of the academy, Nathan Zézé is tied to his training club until 2018 after extending his contract last spring.
