The FCN goalkeeper, Alban Lafont, could no longer be part of the club’s squad. In fact, the 25-year-old goalkeeper no longer seems to be unanimous within the club and the supportersThe period when he was considered a hope for French football now seems quite far away. Lafont has been stagnating for several years within the FC Nantes squad. At the end of the contract until 2027, it would not be surprising to see the Frenchman evolve under the colors of another club to relaunch himself.
Who will replace the Nantes goalkeeper?
In financial difficulty due to the sanctions of the DNCG and the problem of TV rights, Waldemar Kita’s club must recruit to avoid a possible decent in Ligue 2, next season. Many sectors of Nantes’ game are subject to the Mercato and the supposed departure of their number 1 goalkeeper would push the Canaries to recruit in this position as well. Especially since There are not many goalkeepers at the club. Remy Descampssecond goalkeeper in the squad, is at the end of his contract and will not renew. Which leaves Denis Petric, also at the end of his contract this summer, the only goalkeeper in the event of Lafont’s departure. Thus, several goalkeepers would be mentioned by the Nantes Management. First, Urcan Cakır, Trabzonspor forward, already tracked by the Canaries since last summer could succeed Albant Lafont. Looking within their B club, FC Nantes could also find in Tom Mabon an interesting profile. Just signed as a pro and in the squad of the France U20 group, the 20-year-old goalkeeper had an interesting Youth League campaign.
