« The priority is to work to build a squad as close as possible to the one we will start with, so yes today it is the positions in midfield that need to be filled, but at the same time, you have Douglas Augusto (27 years old, contract until 2027) who is still there, Pedro Chirivella (27 years old, 2026) too, so it is also to see with them what they are going to do. “, reveals the coach of FC Nantes at a press conference, before adding the name ofAlban Lafont.
Douglas Augusto, Chirivella and Lafont asked to leave
« In the discussions we had at the end of the season, they expressed the wish to leave and I am also going in that direction. Pedro is in his fourth season, he wants to go and see elsewhere, so it is good for him and for us too. He has done his time and Alban (Lafont) also wants to leave, so we are also looking at the goalkeeper position, number one and two », added Antoine Kombouare.
