Rennes will offer itself a French hope

Stade Rennais should exceed the 10 recruits mark this summer. Without counting the Portuguese striker of Al-Ittihad, Jota, who should soon invest in Brittany, Julien Stéphan has already been able to count 9 reinforcements in his squad. But according to information from West Franceanother name should be added to the contingent: Naouirou Ahamada.

Having played for the French national team’s youth teams, the 22-year-old midfielder joined Juventus in 2018 from Istres. It was finally at Stuttgart and then at Crystal Palace, joined in January 2023, that he revealed himself (he played 20 Premier League matches last season). According to the French daily, Ahamada should now join Rennes on loan with an option to buy. The Marseille native is expected this Friday, August 30 before the transfer window closes.
