Not happy with having officially recruited Seko Fofana this Wednesday 1is January 2025, Stade Rennais wishes to further strengthen its midfield with a certain Habib Diarra (RC Strasbourg, 20 years old).
Stade Rennais yesterday formalized the first spectacular movement of the winter transfer window in Ligue 1, with the signing of Seko Fofana. The 29-year-old ex-Lensois is committed until the summer of 2029 as part of a transfer estimated at €20 million, from Al-Nassr.
The Stade Rennais market is still far from finished. While Brice Samba is expected as the next recruit, the Breton club wishes to further strengthen its midfield. According to Mohamed Toubache-Ter, in addition to Joris Chotard, Habib Diarra is targeted.
If the “file is very complicated” but prioritized by “the requirement of a Sampaoli”, we remember that the RC Strasbourg midfielder was already in Arnaud Pouille's sights at RC Lens at the end of 2023 to satisfy Franck's expectations Haise. The player even wanted to join Artois at that time but the Alsatian club then froze the operation. Today, English clubs would be interested.
