Arrived in Picardy last January, Mohamed Jaouab only had a short stint at Amiens SC. With a buyout clause, Stade Rennais decided to activate it to repatriate the Moroccan central defender. In any case, the player will keep a good memory of his experience in Samaria.
Rennes convinced by Mohamed Jaouab
Four months of competition for a total of 11 matches, that’s the time it took to Mohamed Jaouab to convince Rennes to come back to get him from Amiens, where he had been sold for 400,000 euros last January. A deal including a buyout clause estimated at 1 million euros, which the Breton club has therefore decided to activate in recent days.
« This signing is Mohamed’s reward for four very good months of competition with the Amiens club.justifie Olivier Cloarecthe executive president of Stade Rennais, on the club’s official website. This significant playing time has allowed him to assert himself both on a sporting level and as an adult where he has gained maturity. His performances in Ligue 2 have convinced us to offer him a new four-year contract. »
Amiens SC, the beak in the water
From the player’s point of view, this return home is experienced as an accomplishment. I am very happy to return to Rennes. The loan to Amiens did me a lot of good and I would like to thank the ASC. I was able to continue, gain confidence and play good matches in an interesting championship, says Mohamed Jaouab. I feel ready for this new challenge in Renneshappy, with a great desire to fight for the club. It will start with a big preparation this summer. »
On the Amiens SC side, it is therefore without Mohamed Jaouab that the summer preparation will start, from Thursday with the first medical and physical tests. Enough to bring the club back to square one, namely the search for a central defender who can relaunch. A profile already desired last summer and for which it was necessary to wait until January and the recruitment on a “provisional” basis of Mohamed Jaouab.
