The departure of Seko Fofana from RC Lens had left supporters pissed. His return to Ligue 1, but at Stade Rennais, after a year and a half spent in Saudi Arabia, does not improve things. This is evidenced by the latest murderous banner of the Sang et Or ultras.
This escaped no one's notice: on January 1, 2025, at the very opening of the winter transfer window, Seko Fofana left Saudi Arabia to sign up with Stade Rennais. A return to Ligue 1 which was delighted by Franck Haise, his former coach at RC Lens, who did not fail to say it on the sidelines of the reception of Rennes by OGC Nice. Sang et Or supporters, for their part, have more difficulty digesting his arrival at the Breton club.
In a banner displayed during Toulouse's reception at Bollaert this Sunday, January 5, the supporters sent a strong message to their former captain. “ Shareholder and player of another club: modern football gives us the sheaf », blurted out the RC Lens ultras. As a reminder, Seko Fofana has been the majority shareholder of his former club since his departure to Saudi Arabia in 2023. However, he preferred to resign from the board of directors before signing for Rennes in order to avoid possible suspicions of conflicts of interest .
