He arrived in Brittany last summer, crowned with an already well-stocked CV after his time at Olympique de Marseille. Valentin Rongier naturally emerges as a sure value in the
Stade Rennais this season. The versatile midfielder is one of the Breton club’s most regular players, whose rise in the standings has been spectacular.
If Rongier shines with his influence in the midfield, the midfielder trained at FC Nantes is not really renowned for his finishing ability. But the Rennais deviated from his habits this Friday evening by scoring a nice goal on the Metz pitch.

After a collective action initiated on the left side, Rongier took advantage of a delivery from Embolo at the entrance to the area to arm a powerful half-volley which ended up in the back of the net. An important goal which allows the former OM player to unlock his score with Stade Rennais.
