Stade Rennais has decided to bet big on Kyogo Furuhashi, but will succeed in a very nice sale with Jota who leaves him, on the side of Celtic Glasgow.
Arrived with the label of the player capable of setting fire offensively, Jota never managed to win with the Stade Rennais. Very little used by Julien Stéphan, the Portuguese winger was then completely forgotten by Jorge Sampaoli. Despite impeccable behavior, the former al-Ittihad could not show himself and will leave Brittany directly six months after his arrival. He had signed last August for 8 million euros, and inevitably, his rating did not skyrocket with this first disappointing part of the season. And yet, according to information from Sky Sports, like the small feat achieved by OM by selling Elye Wahi very well despite disappointing performance, Rennes will get very well.
Jota and Celtic, it has already matched
The “Red and Black” have reached an agreement for the sale of Jota to Celtic Glasgow against 9.5 million euros. The two clubs have also just agreed on the transfer, in the other direction, of Kyogo Furuhashi, which will be more than 13 million euros. But Rennes recovers an impact player, and separates from an element that has hardly played the season, without in the end having to pay too large. And if the Scottish club has put such an amount, it is also because it has already had Jota under its orders with the departure of the latter for Saudi Arabia, and the Portuguese had become a darling of Celtic Park. It had worked well for everyone, since the Hoops had recovered 29 million euros from his transfer to Saudi Arabia later.
