Courted by RC Lens, Stade Brestois and FC Nantes during the summer transfer window, Haris Belkebla (30) finally joined SCO Angers. Any regrets for the Canaries?
If Angers is still stuck in the bottom of the Ligue 1 ranking this season, Haris Belkebla does not regret having signed there this summer. However, the Algerian midfielder was eagerly courted by teams of better standing in the transfer window. According to L'Équipe, no less than three clubs more upscale than the SCO were in the running to welcome him: RC Lens, Stade Brestois and FC Nantes!
Kombouaré preferred Gbamin to Belkebla
Among the Canaries, Antoine Kombouaré finally had the last word in this matter and preferred Jean-Philippe Gbamin. The shared past of the two men in the ranks of RC Lens worked against Belkebla, who therefore gave in to the calls of the owner of Angers SCO, Saïd Chabane, while he was free. Infuriating for FC Nantes?
