Victim of a cruciate ligament rupture in November 2023, Ignatius Ganago missed the entire end of the FC Nantes season. An important player in the 2022-2023 season, where he scored 5 goals and delivered 3 assists in 28 Ligue 1 matches, the Cameroonian striker returned this summer but was injured again.
He therefore really launched his season at the end of September. Obviously, at the start, Antoine Kombouaré, who is in the hot seat today, took no risks with him and only brought him into play at the end of the match, around a quarter of an hour.
But almost two months later and after seven matches played, Ignatius Ganago is still confined to a supersub role. A status that does not suit him.
Nantes: Ignatius Ganago wants to leave, towards Panathinaikos?
Thus, according to the media 237foot, a site specializing in Cameroonian football, the former RC Lens and OGC Nice has already expressed his desire elsewhere to the Nantes management. His departure could take place as early as the winter transfer window.
Still according to the same source, Panathinaikos would be in pole position to recruit him from January 2025. The Cameroonian striker would really like to leave and would have asked FC Nantes to facilitate his departure by not being too greedy on his starting price.
Mostafa Mohamed also on the start
Arriving in Nantes in September 2022 for 4.4 million euros, Ignatius Ganago is today valued at 2 million euros by Transfermarkt, despite a contract running until June 2027 with the FCN.
He could thus bring a small check to the Canaries, who should also lose Mostafa Mohamed this winter. The departure of the Egyptian should bring more to the French team, which is asking 10 million euros to part with it.
Passionate about sport and from Toulouse, I am of course a supporter of the great TFC, which has more titles than OM and OL combined over the last ten years.
