It’s time to resume for the people of Nantes and Antoine Kombouaré this Monday afternoon at Jonelière. With light training and medical tests to start, then two days with two daily sessions and new tests for a workforce divided into several groups.
The Nantes residents will notably carry out an internship in Austria from July 15 to 20. Several elements at the end of the loan or contract are no longer there: Moussa Sissoko, who did not extend for another year as was proposed to him with lowered conditions, Eray Cömert, Samuel Moutoussamy, Rémy Descamps, Denis Petric, Kader Bamba, Nicolas Cozza and Bénie Traoré.
Conversely, Fabien Centonze (Hellas Verona, ITA), Lamine Diack (Colorado Rapids, USA) and Junior Diaz (Annecy, L2) are back from loan, while Nicolas Pallois, 36, extended his lease in Nantes until 2025 at the end of May. Despite the great uncertainty over TV rights, the Nantes transfer window started with a strong choice and the acquisition of Rennes striker Matthis Abline, who will sign for four years, for 10 million euros plus 2 in bonuses.
Cameroonian international Ignatius Ganago, whose last season ended at the end of November (rupture of the cruciate ligaments in his left knee), will be able to resume normally. Another opportunity on the offensive side is possible.
Nantes should also complete its midfield. On this side, the track of the young Lyonnais Mahamadou Diawara has closed. Since the number 2 (Descamps) and 3 (Petric) goalkeepers are no longer from Nantes, another goalkeeper is also necessary in addition to Alban Lafont, if he stays, who will probably not be Mory Diaw (Clermont).
