For those coming out of hibernation, Stade Rennais ousted Julien Stéphan and gave the keys to the truck to Jorge Sampaoli. Who says change of coach, says readjustment during the next transfer window. Indeed, it is a safe bet that things should change in Rennes next January.
Among the profiles sought, the Breton club would like to bring competition on the left side of its defense. As indicated in previous articles, Mahamadou Nagida should be loaned so that he can gain playing time. A possible departure which will necessarily have to be compensated.
While we recently mentioned an interest from Stade Rennais for Lucas Piton (Vasco da Gama), El Hadji Malick Diouf (Slavia Prague) and Souffian El Karouani (FC Utrecht), another avenue was added to the previous ones. Nothing could be more logical, especially with the arrival of a new coach.
Indeed, the sporting director of the SRFC, Frédéric Massara, is carefully following the situation of Josh Doig. Under contract until 2028 at Sassuolo, the 22-year-old Scottish left-back is a starter for the Italian team which is playing in Serie B this season.
A time announced close to joining Olympique de Marseille before signing for Sassuolo, Josh Doig who is a more solid player defensively than Adrien Truffert, has the advantage of being versatile since he can evolve as a left piston and even help out in central defense. Not against the idea of leaving Sassuolo during the next transfer window, Doig could be accessible for 8/9 million euros.
