Rennes: a first reinforcement for Jorge Sampaoli!
A few days before his first match at the head of Rennes against LOSC, Jorge Sampaoli has already strengthened his staff. In addition to Pablo Fernandez, his faithful assistant, the Argentinian will be able to count on Abel Pimentaa 32-year-old Portuguese technician with a varied background.
A former video analyst at FC Porto and assistant at several Portuguese clubs, including Braga, Pimenta brings valuable tactical expertise. Although his precise role remains to be defined, he will support Sampaoli in his mission to revive a team in search of results after a complicated start to the season.
Facing LOSC this Sunday, Sampaoli and his staff will have a first test to make their mark and meet the high expectations of Rennes supporters, and trigger a positive dynamic around the club.
