Looking for reinforcements in defense during the transfer window, Stade Rennais is increasingly interested in Lilian Brassier. This is good, OM wants to part ways with the former Brest player, just six months after his arrival.
Jorge Sampaoli is definitely very attentive to what is happening at Olympique de Marseille. His former club attracts a lot of attention from the Argentinian coach of Stade Rennais, who would have liked to enlist the services of Valentin Rongier to stabilize his midfield. Roberto De Zerbi was very blunt at the press conference, saying that Rennes would have to find another player in this position because the former Nantes player was “non-transferable”. However, this is not the case for Lilian Brassier, from whom OM wishes to part ways just six months after her arrival from Brest for 11 million euros. An opportunity that Rennes could seize, according to information from Foot Market.
Rennes is very interested in Brassier
The specialist media claims that the Breton club is very interested in the 25-year-old central defender, who is also being courted by Leicester, Villarreal, Wolfsburg and OGC Nice. The number 20 from Olympique de Marseille has never managed to acclimatize in Provence and Roberto De Zerbi already no longer seems to believe in him, the Italian coach preferring Kondogbia or even Cornelius for the position of left central defender. Stade Rennais has therefore decided to relaunch the former Brestois even if at this time, no concrete steps have been taken by the Rennes board, which is also monitoring the situations of Chancel Mbemba and Bamo Meïté. In any case, it is a safe bet that Rennes and Marseille will do business during this winter transfer window even if it will be necessary to agree on the price of Lilian Brassier, who OM will undoubtedly have great difficulty selling for less than 10 million euros.
