Johann Lepenant, FC Nantes midfielder, had fun with a comparison with Karim Benzema on social networks.

Johann Lepenant, currently on loan at FC Nantes, sparked amusement when he saw a video of one of his dribbles compared to an iconic action by Karim Benzema in the Champions League. In response, the 21-year-old midfielder told The Team: “I saw that on the networks. I took that with a lot of irony. I’m not Benzema at all, so it made me laugh. »

Loaned by Olympique Lyonnais with a purchase option, Lepenant has established himself as a pillar of Kombouaré’s system. With 2 goals and 1 assist since the start of the season, he is playing higher up the pitch. The player pointed out:
“The coach gives me freedom and asks me to take risks. » After a forced break against Lyon, Lepenant will return to the field this weekend against Nice.
