While we learned this Saturday that Brice Samba should join Stade Rennais until 2029 for around €15M from RC Lens, the Sang et Or would already have an idea in mind to succeed him.

We will have to wait until January and the opening of the transfer window to see things more clearly in this winter transfer window.
