Stade Rennais has clearly affirmed its ambitions since the start of the summer transfer window.
Fourth and qualified once again for the Europa League, Stade Rennais wants to take a step forward. Florian Maurice, the sporting director of the Breton club, clearly announced the color last week. ” The idea is to do much better than last year, with the podium, the Champions League, had released the leader in remarks granted to TV Rennes. We must have important objectives. Obviously, it can put additional pressure on the group, but we want that, we always want it. Afterwards, we must not forget that there are other clubs working, which will have a transfer window and it will be a fight. But we can consider that today Stade Rennais must have this ambition“.
These words were materialized by a very attractive start to the transfer window, with the arrivals in the midfield of the talented Enzo Le Fée (Lorient) and Ludovic Blas (Nantes). But Rennes does not intend to stop there. Reinforcements are expected in the other lines, in attack and defense. For the defensive sector precisely, Rennes would aim for a lateral defender capable of effectively replacing Hamari Traoré, who left the club for Real Sociedad after his contract expired.

With this in mind, the sports management would have set its sights on Mikkel Desler. According to information from the team, Stade Rennais should go on the offensive to try to secure the services of the right side defender of Toulouse. At the age of 28, the Dane had a full season with the TFC, contributing to the successful campaign of the promoted, who managed to stay quietly in the top flight while winning the Coupe de France. The deal could be concluded for compensation of between 2.5 and 3 million euros. Desler sees his lease in Toulouse expire in a year.
